Terri,
I think http://asklenore.com is one of the most comprehensive websites on adoptive breastfeeding.

> For those of you that have experience with adoptive mothers.
> I have searched the archives and have read the information in Lawrence,
> Newman and Riordan regarding adoption and induced lactation. I have a client
> that plans to adopt. She is in just the beginning phase, so she doesn't know
> how far ahead she is in planning. She has a daughter she gave birth to and
> successfully breastfed. I'm not sure how long but I know she left her job to be
> at home and nurse her child.
> Do you feel that by beginning pumping now would be the best treatment for
> her? Do you think she needs to take hormones like Orthonovuum for 9 months
> along with Metoclopfamide. We are in the United States so Domperidome is
> not an option for her and she and her husband are not willing to do compound
> pharmacy. They are both in the health field. I did talk with her about a
> supplemental nurser system. Before any further suggestions I would like to
> hear from those of you with more exprerience.
