Evelyn started sleeping through about 3weeks so I wouldn't say it's unusual. I woke up in the morning with HUGE breasts for a few days, then they settled down. If your LO carries on missing a feed through the night, your body will stop producing it but your supply must be good as he's getting a good feed before bed and sleeping through.
Oats are good to increase milk supply so if you're worried get some porridge :-D I have it every morning. Xx

oh how I wish I had this problem! Alex must be doign fab! Owen 18 weeks tomorrow and still feeding a lot at night. Trying with dummy but every night is different. Dream feed at 11, some nights 3 or 4 am feed then through til 7 am other nights 2 am then 5am feed. My body just seems to cope as diff amount of feeds each night...it's amazing really!
