Answers:
wet nurses can produce milk for years and years while they nurse other people's babies. it's possible but very difficult to stimulate milk production without being pregnant in the first place. it's the nursing baby that stimulates milk production. pregnancy prepares everything, which could probably be imitated by articficial hormones.Health Question & Answer

No, they only produce milk during or right after pregnancy. The body's hormones can detect when the baby is born and usually starts lactaiding from that point. Some women start lactaiding WAY early, during pregnancy and then dry up right before the baby is born for some reason. I've also heard, in a RARE occassion, if a women who hasn't been pregnant, but start trying to breast feed a child that isn't her own on a regular basis, the body will pick up whats going on and EVENTUALLY might start producing milk.Health Question & Answer

Well a woman becomes pregnant and starts to produce milk. Afterwards she keeps producing until she just stops nurseing. Their is also a type of shot that can make a woman produce milk if she happens to need it, such as if she drys up and still wants to nurse her child. Hope I helped God blessHealth Question & Answer

No!

A pregnant woman will or can produce breast milk right after conception not only after birth. pregnancy it is COMMON to have leaking breast and natural.
