Best Answer

the ability to produce milk is initially an automatic process onset by pregnancy.

Afterwards it is maintained by the suckling and removal of milk which results in the continued production of milk.

Similiar, milk production can also be initiated via this suckling, or by the use of hormones or hormone inducing herbs.

Yes, hence the term "wetnurse." In many cultures, aristoractic women did not nurse their own children, rather hired a wetnurse to do it for them. Depending on the society, wetnurses may or may not have had children of their own. There are a number of substances that can be given to women to promote lactation that is necessary for nursing a child.

No, a woman cannot lactate without pregnancy. This is because the mammary glands are only stimulated to produce milk during pregnancy and while a mother is nursing her newborn.

yes, have you not heard of a "wet nurse". I understand any woman can lactate if she is in love with a child.

Try playing with a child's breasts and nipples with your finngers and hands while singing tp the child, or letting older children play with your skin while they sing. Your delectable cream can be the child, or older child's reward for your playtine together.
