XP - Help for Adoptive/ surragate mom wanting to BF

**Repost from the BF board**

 Hi everyone,

I'm posting for my friend who has 1 child, but due to medical issues from severe endometriosis, can not carry any more children.  They have a surragate and frozen embryos and are on the path to getting baby #2.

She bf her DD for awhile, but had some difficulty, and is looking into drugs that stimulate milk supply that are availble to adoptive moms, as she's hoping to try and BF baby #2.

I've given her some links to kellymom's info on this, but was hoping to find someone who may have personal experience with this situation and may be able to lend some advice and explain their experience.  Anyone?

TIA!!
