If it were not true that just stimulating the breasts without actually
removing milk "told" the breasts to make more, how would a mom relactate
after weaning or induce a milk supply for an adopted baby? When a mom is
starting with "nothing" as in an adoptive situation, we all know that milk
will eventually be produced just by pumping and/or the baby suckling at the
breast with a supplementer. I couldn't explain the physiology behind it,
but in the beginning, no milk is being removed, yet done often enough, milk
appears.
