Help! I think I'm losing my milk supply

Help! I think I'm losing my milk supply

I usually just nurse my dd, but I do pump every now and then to freeze, just in case I ever get sick or when/if my dd decides to take the bottle. I used to pump like 7 ounces between each breast, and now I'm barely getting 2 between the 2. My DD is peeing and pooping and doesn't seem hungry. Could there be something wrong with the pump? It has suction. I just don't get it, and I'm really nervous. TIA!

I think you need to pump regularly in order to keep that supply up. Maybe pick a time and try to pump at that time every day. If you only pump on occasion, your body may not recognize it as a true demand.
