you can quick add -500 (NEGATIVE 500) calories to account for the milk production. that will give you 500 extra cals to eat in a day.
or log 500 calories of breastfeeding "exercise"
or custom-set a calorie goal.

There is no automatic feature. You have to adjust your calorie goal manually. Consult a medical professional on what that goal should be.
