I've found that to keep my supply up, I need to put the pump or the baby to my breast 8+ times per day. You could potentially increase your supply by adding another feeding session or pumping session.
Lately I am feeling less productive than normal. I've either been letting my son snooze in our bed with us, where he will snack more often since my breasts are right there and he likes the "open bar" policy, or I try to offer while he is in a light sleep and more willing to nurse than to practice crawling or watch his sister.
