did this happen to any of you?

I occasionally pump.  I used to pump about 3-10 times a week and now it's down to 1-2 times a week bc I'm working less.  I used to get about 5-7 oz total whenever I would pump.  Yesterday I had a meeting to go to and after 10-15 minutes of pumping, I only got half an oz.  The last couple times before that I only got 1-2 oz.  I had some sample formula so I've had to use that (though, he doesn't like it...he's BF since birth and only had formula 3 times).  I don't know if it's my pump or what bc he still nurses just fine and doesn't seem hungry after nursing, and he doesn't eat much solid food.  I would guess he eats about 6 oz each time he nurses. 

I just don't know if my pump is dying bc it's not a great pump or if my boobs just aren't respondig to it anymore or what.  Any experience with this?

Your body probably isn't used to the pump anymore, as long as he seems satisfied nursing then you are good.
