Hi all maybe you can help me. My one yr old does not nusrse on a schedule. The only consistant time is when she wakes up in the morning. Sometimes she won't nurse again until 8 pm and there are some days when she will nurse twice through out the day. Does her sparadic nursing habbits alter my milk supply?

No because its supply and demand, you will only make as much milk as your baby needs.

your milk supply is always changing to meet your babies schedule, even when it is sporadic.
