Christine,
That's the BEST!
Jenna,
I don't think your situation when Munchkin was born was related to adoption. I was like Bessy the Cow (excuse the visual) when I had K, though no bfeeding took place.
I'd question your doctor about it. I know that bfeeding moms need to be well hydrated, and it could be that because of your medical history, you just need some extra attention and help with this? The hospital also has lactation consultants on staff, normally, so you might want to call them for advice.
I wish I had more to share. Just keep in mind that each baby and each pregnancy is a bit different (hello cliche, but I can't help myself), so it could end up being a non-issue for you!
