I just caught most of what appears to be a new show on The Learning Channel,
called "A Baby Story."  This particular episode followed a birth mother and
adoptive family through the preparation, birth and first days of a baby.  This
one not only showed a water birth, but also that the adoptive mother was
nursing the baby with a SNS!!  She explained that her body was beginning to
make milk, and that the baby's sucking would stimulate lactation.  I couldn't
believe it!  I almost cried, I was so happy.  I hope lots of people saw this,
so that they realize that adoption doesn't always mean bottle feeding.  Did
anybody else see this show?  I'd be interested in knowing other reactions.
