Of course. Most Amish women breast feed because it is helthier than bottle feeding. (and a lot more convenient). In the meeting house on the women's side is always a quiet darkened room when one can go to take care of the little ones, and still hear and see the service.
And no, you can't look in.
Also, there are special "maternity" cape dresses to allow mothers to feed the children while maintaining complete modesty.
Websites? Well, there is a store in Holmes County called Lehman Brothers that carries products used by Amish (and non-Amish also) that has a website, but even the Budget (the newspaper) doesn't have a web presence. Computers are used for e-mail (to stay in touch with home when travelling) and for business. but surfing is not encouraged, and if there is a question about life, one knows where to find the answers without a website (try the community with which one lives, or the ministry.)
