Yes, I know they do.  Speaking for myself, it was truely an interest
in knowing how close another mom's milk would be.  I mean, let's
assume the other mom has an older toddler who is still nursing.  If
she were to nurse the adopted baby, that baby would be getting
"toddler milk" wouldn't s/he?  So, even if the antibodies are similar
because of similar environments, wouldn't the milk composition with
respect to fats, protein content, vitamins and minerals content, etc.,
change?  Or is it a slight enough change that it's not worth worrying
about?
