Default how do you know if you are still producing milk?

There is probably still milk there. After a while your body learns to
produce it only when/as needed. So if you have one that nurses only at
night, you probably wont have much milk productiom till night time.

My daughter is almost 18 months old, and nurses pretty frequently
throughout the day but sleeps all night. I no longer wake up full, and
in fact the other day went from 4pm one day to 8am the next day with
no nursing, and I didn't feel full in the morning(that wasn't
intentional, I was on the phone at bedtime and she asked dh to get her
to bed...I had no idea until he came to me without her). I can't even
tell if she is swallowing, she's so wiggly and making faces and funny
noises as she sucks. I can't squeeze any milk out. So how do you know
if you still make milk? Do you think toddlers care if the milk is
there or not?
