Re: Kathy Dettwyler's segment from her chapter. Might I add that instead of
including adoptive mothers as one group who bottle-feeds that we note a
time when we can imagine all adoptive mothers being informed of the
benefits and how-to's of induced lactation in order to allow them to make
an informed choice?
Having worked with many hundreds of such mothers, I do NOT see adoption as
an automatic bottle-feeding experience.  (couldn't resist)
