Hand expression videos
I've put more than one here because there are moms who might learn a technique and/or tips from one video and another mom who learns more from a different video. Feel free to watch them all and use what works best for you! This is the Thompson Breastfeeding Method which is a great video with basic latch and positioning info.

Formula
Organic formula
HiPP organic baby formula is one of the best ones I’ve come across over the last few years. It’s from Germany but there are a few different varieties from Britain and the US that I’ve seen. They’re slightly different in composition. Here’s a link for the one from Germany paid for in US dollars: https://www.organicbabyfood24.de/hipp-formula?gclid=Cj0KCQjwqrb7BRDlARIsACwGad5cjPJGqopr3XaEHWHz6DfScTcYrMI-XPMKH83RPOVLTXVBSXsssGgaAnQvEALw_wcB
