Ways to boost milk supply? I'm exclusively pumping and am only getting 2ozs each pumping session and my daughter is starting to want 3oz each feeding.

@kambam she wouldn't latch on. she would latch and suck for a few seconds then pull off and just cry around my nipple and it became stressful. So I decided to exclusively pump.

Try the legendairy milk supplements. If you can only get 1 then get cash cow. They also sell variety packs but cash cow has a great herbal blend.
Double check pump parts are right size, new and good shape.
Warm towel on breasts while pumping and massage. Smell babies head while you pump. Sometimes the newborn cries will give you a letdown, you can wear a milk catcher to catch anything extra!

I always recommend power pumping/clusters pumping. It’s when you pump for 10mins and wait 10and then come back for 10 more mins for about 1-2hr. It helps treat their system into i thinking you baby is needing more and it can possibly create more on demand. Search more about it.
