Abstract

It has traditionally been difficult to separate breastfeeding from pregnancy and childbirth. However, the option of breastfeeding their babies is also feasible for women who have become mothers through gestational surrogacy processes or adoption. We present the case of a woman diagnosed with Rokitansky syndrome who successfully breastfed her baby following Doctor Newman’s protocols. There is little information on breastfeeding induction. Pediatricians should be knowledgeable about the possibilities of breastfeeding induction.
