Baby won’t latch, no milk day 5 postpartum

Title sums it up. Baby won’t latch (I apparently have short nipples and he has a bad tongue tie, getting it cut today). I have been pumping every 2-3 hours since maybe day 2 postpartum when we started formula supplementation bc he was clearly struggling. I’m struggling. I want him to get breast milk. I’m not producing enough. Idk how to fix it. I’m using the spectra s1. I’ve googled settings I really don’t know what I’m doing. I’m getting 3-5ml each session, shouldn’t I be producing more by now? Can anyone lead me in the right direction?
