Dear Darillyn,
    I am very glad you stated this opinion in your last post.  While many
adoptive moms I see undertake pumping and Domperidone previous to the birth,
I like the emphasis on "being at breast"........your website has helped so
many moms and I am glad to have it as a reference.
Aloha y'all,
