Fran - just for the record - some moms are able to produce a significant amount of breastmilk just taking a few different herbs and through pumping. Also, putting baby to breast (whether bio or adopted) stimulates lactation. Other adoptive moms choose to take domperidone to increase supply - but lots of bio moms use it as well if they don't have enough milk.

As much as I think every woman should have the choice to breastfeed or not - I also really don't want moms who are considering breastfeeding to get the wrong idea, either.
