Laura, Congratulations! I'd suggest you get a hold of ABA's Relactation and Adoptive BF booklet (from LLL or ABA) and you may also find the article I wrote at http://www.internationalbreastfeedingjournal.com/content/1/1/5 helpful It would also be wonderful if you would consider being a part of my study of older adoptive breastfeeding (I can send you info if you think you might be interested).
