how to get breast milk without pregnancy - #22747
I am really confused right now and hoping someone can help me out. My sister recently adopted a baby, and she wants to breastfeed, but she’s not pregnant, obviously. We've heard about this thing called inducing lactation and I can't believe it’s even possible! But, like, how to get breast milk without pregnancy? I mean, she has been doing her research, looking for tips, and talking to lactation consultants, but honestly, it seems kinda overwhelming. I remember her saying something about hormones, like how she needs to stimulate her breasts and maybe take some pills or supplements?? But what if it doesn't work? It feels like an emotional rollercoaster. Does anyone know how to get breast milk without pregnancy? And are there specific methods or routines she should be following? Also, how long does it take usually to start producing? I just want to make sure she is on the right track, you know? I can't help but think, is it really worth all the hassle? I mean, lactation seems natural but then you throw in the whole ‘not pregnant’ aspect and it becomes this big thing. Any advice would be super appreciated!
