You might inquire about the death in the family or close friend.
Sometimes mothers overlook this as possible source of low milk supply.
I have seen this impact bf.  Baby could be teething too.
Much more frequent pumping is necessary to boost milk supply,especially
if baby isn't feeding well at the breast. There are lots of previous
posts about this subject.
