BF/Pumping ?

Ok this might be a dumb question..but I just saw something about it on another post...Does skipping a feeding or not pumping when you become engorged decrease your supply?

    Just once is not going to wreck supply. But if you're like me and having issues keeping up, or trying to increase supply, I wouldn't skip.
    Um, yeah. The Bump be too crazy for pics of my kid.

    I waited until it really hurt a few times (cause of running errands, etc) and I consider myself fortunate to have had no duct clogs/mastis. However, my supply has dropped and I bet this had something to do with it. Now I'm trying to get back to where I was (a pathetic ounce-2ounces per feeding).

    yeah I have skipped like 2 days back to back only pumping 2 or 3 times a day and now my supply is low. I have been BF DD more than pumping these days but before when I would BF and pump I would still get like 4 oz every 2-3 hrs..this sucks!!!!
