Yes, you should pump so your supply doesn't go down. It is typical for 7-8 month old babies to go on a nursing strike. You said you fed her some solids so I assume she didn't protest while eating something other than milk. The reasons for nursing strikes can be different, and it is hard to pinpoint what can trigger them. Sometimes it is a new tooth a baby is cutting that is a culprit, they have very sensitive gums and it hurts them to nurse. Or she just decided to do other more interesting things. Or she bit you and you yelled (a normal thing to do, btw) and she got scared. Or she may be coming down with a cold...
Anyway, the way to go through a nursing strike is to continue offering and keep pumping to keep your supply up. It can take even a couple of days up to 2 weeks to get your baby back on a track but it is worthy. We have had quite a few moms here who survived a nursing strike so it is doable :lol:.
A good thing to do is to nurse when they are still sleepy or asleep. You may try to do a dreamfeed while she naps if this is possible. Also, having a bath with your dd may help, when she sees and feels your breast, and it is not a threatening situation for her, she may want to nurse again.
