If she needs more and you arn't producing it then by all means top up with formula, we found the sma to rich and went onto c&g milk, but if you've already got sma give it a go, good luck xxxx

This will only decrease your milk supply, leading to premature weaning. If you haven't already, I would urge you to do whatever you can to get baby to drink straight from the breast. Talk to La Leche League (free!)(llli.org) or a lactation consultant. A baby's suckling will draw milk from the breast infinitely better than any pump can. If you still can't get her to breastfeed directly, LLL or a certified LC will still be your best bet--and totally worth it--to ensure you are giving your daughter as much mama's milk as you can.
