We have also been matched and our baby is due in July as well. We just met the birthmother the other day and our social worker asked us to bring up the discussion of adoptive breastfeeding to her since it has been something we've considered doing. Our SW felt that something so personal (and controversial) needed to be discussed with the expectant mom to get her okay on it. For some expectant mom's this would be a show stopper and before we went through all the preparation, we needed to know she was okay with it. Had she said no, it would not have been a show stopper for us, but she had no problem with it and thought it was awesome that we'd do it!
