6 week old sleeping through the night- will it affect my supply?

Enjoy it! Both of mine did this, were sleeping up to 12 hours at night not long after (I was lucky, I know. They are challenging toddlers/preschoolers to make up for it). I always prioritized sleep and never woke up at night to pump. I would hand express to relieve discomfort if I was really engorged, but my body would typically adjust pretty quickly. It didn’t affect my supply as far as I could tell and I breastfed until 12 months. But, I also had no problem supplementing with formula here and there if I needed extra, and hated pumping any more than I absolutely had to.
