  once a day is only going to be a very small no of calories. I guess your lo is not very little.
  
  You can add breastfeeding under food and it gives you more.

  I allow myself an extra 100 calories a day nursing a 23 month old 1-2 times a day (both sides). This is quite an interesting take on it : http://www.phdinparenting.com/2008/11/25/the-calories-and-breastfeeding-rollercoaster/
