Flagging breastmilk supply

In the last month, my 13 month old has dropped her mid morning and afternoon feeds due to her changing sleep schedule.

I've tried to do the feeds, but she is completely uninterested and worried that this means sleep time!

At night, because she is so exhausted, she falls asleep quite quickly and although I make sure she drinks from both breasts, I don't think she is drinking enough because now if she is awake and feeding before bedtime, she seems to working hard to get more milk than is there.

The morning feed first thing is fine.

During the day she is drinking water and some soy milk (the soy in mid afternoon)

Has it been anyone else's experience that suddenly there is a drop in milk at night if you are only doing two feeds a day?

Should I try to kickstart my milk supply again, or is the status quo OK? She goes to sleep fine and sleeps well at night.
