Breast Feeding Adopted Babies

Not only is breast feeding an adopted baby easy,


 


the chances are that you will produce a large


amount of milk. It isn’t complicated to do,


although it is different than breast feeding a


baby you have been pregnant with for 9 months.


Breast feeding and milk


There are two objectives that are involved in


breast feeding an adopted baby. The first is


getting your baby to breast feed, and the other


is producing enough breast milk.


There is more to breast feeding than just milk,


which is why many mothers are happy to feed


without expecting to produce milk in the way


the baby needs. It’s the closeness and the


bond breast feeding provides that many mothers


look for.


Taking the breast


Even though many feel the early introduction of


bottles may interfere with breast feeding, the


early introduction of artificial nipples can


interfere a great deal. The sooner you can get


the baby to the breast after birth, the better


things will be.


Babies will however, require the flow from the


breast in order to stay attached and continue


to suck, especially if they are used to getting


flow from a bottle or other method of feeding.


Producing breast milk


As soon as you have an adopted baby in sight,


contact a lactation clinic and start getting


your milk supply ready. Keep in mind, you


may never produce a full milk supply for your


baby, although it may happen. You should


never feel discouraged by what you may be


pumping before the baby, as a pump is never


quite as good at extracting milk as a baby


who is well latched and sucking.
