Totally depends on the baby or babies that she is feeding.
Typically, an exclusively breastfed baby will drink around 750mls of milk a day, so that’s what the mother produces. But if she’s feeding twins, she will produce 1500ml. And for triplets it’s 2250ml.
I know of one woman who exclusively breastfed quints, so she was producing around 3750ml per day.
If you are tandem nursing, it won’t be twice what a newborn drinks, but it will be a lot more than one baby.
In addition, some women pump milk to donate to the milk bank, or just to have a stash built up in case she’s not around at any point.

heya answer is here............
●Do you ever second-guess your milk supply after pumping? Do you compare it with the volume of milk your friend or neighbor pumps? Do you compare it with the milk you pumped for a previous baby? Before you start to worry, you first need to know how much pumped milk is average. Many mothers discover—to their surprise—that when they compare their own pumping experience with the norm, they’re doing just fine. Take a deep breath and read on.
Expect Less Milk in the Early Weeks
If the first month of exclusive breastfeeding is going well, your milk production dramatically increases from about one ounce (30 mL) on Day 1 to a peak of about 30 ounces (900 mL) per baby around Day 40.1 Draining your breasts well and often naturally boosts your milk during
these early weeks. But at first, while your milk production is ramping up, expect to pump less milk than you will later. If you pumped more milk for a previous child, you may be thinking back to a time when your milk production was already at its peak rather than during the early weeks while it was still building.
