9 months and expressed milk

Dd2 is 9/12 and ebf until 6 months, loves solids (blw) and following 91st centile. Lately I'm finding it harder to express unless I'm away for more than 4 hours. I work ft (mixture of shifts over 6 days a week) and dh is sahd. On a long day at work (10hrs away) she has 7.5 to 10oz just of ebm in about 3 milk feeds. Was previously a lot more. She reverse cycles so feeds from me about 5-6x from me. My pump was playing up so I've replaced it but am struggling to keep up with 10oz for long days. While the pump wasn't working I think my supply has dropped as I couldn't pump. I do have a freezer stash to use up but wondered if anyone knows how much she should be getting when I'm not there as a minimum. She likes water and juice from her cup as well as milk and eats a very healthy, varied diet.
