Frequent use of a breast pump will stimulate milk production, pregnant or not. That's how adoptive moms can breast feed, although I don't think many of them are aware of the possibility.

No, you do not, many women have that are adopting will start to produce if they get enough help as well as massaging the breasts and using products such as goats rue and mothers milk plus, and drinking the mothers tea stuff

There are reports from the Holocaust, that due to malnutrition, with subsequent proper nutrition resumed often resulted in milk production, even in men!
This was due to the wild hormone fluctuations.

No, not at all. *smiles*

Simple answer is NO. Pregnancy creates hormones that tells the breasts to begin production - however, certain medications (and, reportedly, herbs), frequent suckling, pumping or hand expressing (Marmet Technique) can get the breasts to being lactation.

You're reading Does a woman have to be pregnant to lactate? I've recently heard conflicting stories. If she doesn't I've been missing out on a lot and really have some catching up to do.
