I spoke to the midwives this afternoon and they gave me a lend of an electric pump to express either after a feed or on the 2 hour mark regardless of whether he feeds or not (ie don't wake him for a feed, but store the milk, or feed it back if boobs aren't enough). They told me to give it 48hrs of stimulating the boobs (they said to do both) and also to drink heaps and get lots of rest. I am also going to get some fenugreek as well, although they didn't tell me to do this.
Fingers crossed it'll all work out.
I also bought a couple of sachets of forumla just in case.
