Yes, I am a long time vegan and am currently breastfeeding my almost 1 year old. It is the best thing you can do for your baby, mine has not been sick once in his life.
Human milk is vegan from human mother to human baby just like cow's milk is meant for baby cows only. Humans are the only animal on Earth who drink the milk made for other mammals' babies.

Yes.
Human milk is meant for human babies, just like cows milk is meant for calves.
To take an analogous situation: imagine if 1000 human females were rounded up, artificially inseminated and then had their babies aborted/taken away. If we hooked these women up to pumps and stole their milk this would be considered wrong. Not because there is something inherently wrong with their milk but because these women are being tortured and their milk taken without their consent.
Hope this clears things up for you :)

of course. the milk that comes from the cows is not the same as the milk that has nutrients necessary for children

Absolutely. I plan to breastfeed exclusively. But I will not let my husband make cheese out of it. That's where I draw the line...

Breastmilk isn't the same as cow's milk, because it isn't forcibly taken from animals who are abused and then discarded. Go crazy. :D
