Relactation is the process of rebuilding your milk supply once you have started nursing and then stopped for a period of weeks or months. Induced lactation is the process of building a milk supply in a mother who has either never nursed a baby, or who has nursed years before.
It is not uncommon to hear a mother nursing a sick newborn or relactating for a sick child to refer to her colostrum (or pre-milk in the case of a relactating or adoptive breastfeeding mother) as "liquid gold."
