I don't know but if your in the UK an organisation like LaLeche might know. Even if you can start it baby might not take it if they have been used to bottles all that time

In lesbian relationships it’s not unheard of for the non pregnant Mum to take medication to induce lactation but it’s only for supplementary feeds. A huge part of producing milk is the demand of the baby, new borns spend many hours feeding to establish and increase supply, even if you could get a 1 old who is interested to latch properly (very different to bottle feeding) I’m not sure how you would get them to or if it would be a good idea to get them to feed for that long.

Like a PP said LLL are the people to ask. Can I ask why you want to know OP?
