Hi Jan (and all),

I should have not assumed that the link would be visited and that one would
have realized that the site was a "clearinghouse" for adoptive nursing
information.  I apologize for not including that to begin with.

It actually is a great site, but the recent addition of this article
prompted me to think about writing the site's owner (who is not the author
of the article)...thus my request for everyone input.  Which still has not
been clarified...blistex OK? Not? especially when Lansinoh is readily
available???

I think knowing that this is an adoptive nursing site should clarify the
pumping w/o baby at breast.  Actually this isn't anything done "prenatally"
either, just in prep for an a baby through adoption.  Of course learning the
correct way to latch the baby refers to once the baby is home...

Again my deepest apologies for not being clear the first time around.

Marimar
