Pros and Cons to Adult Breastfeeding
By Rob D.

 
There are a few pros and cons to adult breastfeeding
 
 
The important things which must be understood above all else are these:

1. If there is a breastfeeding baby or   infant, it's very important that the needs and dietary requirements of the baby/infants come first.

2. Its important that the mother of  the baby/infant or the woman that's providing milk for the baby/infant has all the standard health tests; this includes standard blood tests and milk sample testing.

3. Its important that the breast milk be tested to make sure its ok and is fit for purpose (consumption).

4. The baby's needs take the priority over the  partners, its important for that baby to have a stable home & family

5. HAVING A BABY JUST TO INDUCE BREASTMILK IS IRRESPONSIBLE.

 
CONS
 
Sexually transmitted diseases & sexual /  non-sexually transmitted infections can be transmitted  from person to person via bodily fluids, this includes  breastmilk.  

Reference my article:

Adult Breast Feeding and Adult Nursing Relationships

It's important that any woman who wishes to induce should have a regular health check just to make sure that she's okay.
 
Induction can take weeks if not months to induce, this means you will need a STRICT feeding schedule. Once the schedule has been made, it must be followed and adhered to.
 
A woman's nipples often become sore from feeding her partner and/or her baby/infant the time, there are creams available to help with the dry skin, cracking of the skin, etc. You can check out the section "This and That" which covers items for sore/cracking nipples for purchase or you can visit your local baby store.

Once breast milk is produced, it will still require a long feeding schedule to increase milk production, even with the help of herbal supplements and/or medicated tablets such as Domperidone.
 
It's possible for the mammary glands to become infected and the woman may pass on the infection in her expressed breastmilk.
 
Breast tissue can "sag" or lose elasticity once the milk has dried up or has stop being produced and of course, as a woman becomes older.  It can be corrected surgically or if pectoral weight training is done in a gym.
 
If one or more breastfeeding sessions are missed, a woman's breasts can become engorged and painful. Therefore a breast pump would be an investment, either hand or electric.
 
It would be best to check that an electric breast pump doesn't interfere with a pace-maker if either partner or both has one.
 
Breastmilk is reported to be very sweet tasting; it may not be suitable for people who don't like anything that's sweet in taste.
