Hi, I am 26 years old and currently in my third month of pregnancy. The pregnancy goes well and I hope that it will stay like that. Well, I am a bit worried because I would like my baby to be breastfed by me. Can I do that if I have small breasts? I mean, it is not supposed to be related; milk and breast size, but is there really some connection?

The most important thing for a proper breastfeeding is a function of the breast, mammary glands. And that function is in no way related to the size of the breasts. Beside glands, breast is formed from the connective and the fat tissue. You should also learn to breastfeed in proper way, to ensure that your baby get enough milk.
