In the new Penelope Cruz movie Born Twice, Cruz plays a woman who tries to breastfeed her surrogate-born baby. It's a dramatic scene, and Cruz's character fails because you can't breastfeed if you haven't actually given birth -- or can you? I was wondering about this. I mean, I get the drama of the scene and for the movie it's kind of a moot point. But I'm a mom with lots of questions, so I wanted to find out: Can you breastfeed if you haven't given birth? It's not easy. But it's possible!
