Hi, I am 28 weeks pregnant right now and so far my breast have not dramatically increased in size. They have been pretty sore now and then but they are no bigger than before. My question is...I was not able to breastfeed my first baby and I REALLY want to nurse this second baby as much and for as long as I can....but honestly I think to myself " I have small boobs....CAN I successfully breastfeed" Does the size of your breast have anything to do with how much breastmilk your body can produce??

First of all I read that it makes no difference whatsoever.
Second of all I LIVED that it MAKES NO DIFFERENCE.

Before getting pregnant my breasts were what some call "Almost" A. LOL and not joking either. I've successfully nursed my daughter for 12 months now. My breasts are now officially size A! :D
Your breast size does not make a difference in how much milk or the quality of milk that you create. If you don't believe me, my daughter was 21 pounds at 6 months old and had not yet started solids and was EXCLUSIVELY breastfed (no formula!)

You can do it! Your body is MADE to nourish your child. That's the way God created us. That's what our boobs were made for! :)

The more you use them, the more they provide! It's a beautiful evidence that God is in control! I freaked out as a DD cuz I thought Jesse wasn't getting enough, until I trusted how The Lord made it to work. If you need some help, there is this stuff you can get at Whole Foods or any natural food store. It's called "milk enrichment" or "milk enhancer". Start taking it the minute the baby is born, not before (it might induce labor). It's got herbs in it that have been proven to increase the amount of milk, and quality. One day I took one of "the girls" out to feed the baby, and milk was shooting him in the head before I could get it in his mouth. Don't give up no matter what.

I'm a small B cup and let me tell you, when my milk came in, yowza! Instant C and I had NO problem breastfeeding due to cup size. Your breasts will produce the amount of milk your baby needs.

Good luck!

I have am a small 10 b (and no growth during pregnancy much 2 my husbands disgust) and had an abundance of breastmilk-my sister in law is at least a d cup and couldn't breastfeed coz baby couldn't latch because of the big size of her breasts!! So eat plenty of fresh fruit , veggies and nuts (nuts have been proven 2 bring in good quality breastmilk) and drink plenty of water and most importantly DONT STRESS!!-good luck :)

Heyy. What's up? My name's Gwenivere, let me tell you a brief story about myself which I believe may be of some Hẹlp to you... Growing up, I was teased all throughout high-school. You know, I was that girl with the really small breasts that everyone liked to make fun of. I did not hit puberty until a little bit later on in my life. People used to say all kinds of mean things to me, refering to my breasts as "man-boobs", "mosquito bite titts", "flat-chested" ... it just went on and on. I even had one boyfriend that told me that he was ashamed to be seen with me in public. The ridicule never seemd to end. Because of this, I went through school being very self-conscious about my appearance and my ability to get boys to like me. Even after puberty, I never made it past an A cup.. so my negative self-image carried on into college. The emotional scars left by those mean girls (and boys) from HS never quite faded.

So, with that, I was determined to change my predicament. The thought of going through life feeling insecure about my body was unacceptable to me , especially during my college years. So what I did was a thorough, dedicated search. I scoured the web for answers. I spent several days and nights pouring through an endless amount of first-hand accounts and other personal experiences with various products and solutions. During this quest, I found precisely what I was seeking. It was a topical cream called "CurvyBust" @ https://curvybust.im .. The first bottle that they sent out was totally Frẹe, the only thing I had to do was pay for the S&H. This is the only reason I even tried it, normally I would be too skeptical to bother with something "too good to be true." All I can say is, unbelievable. I went up almost 2 cup sizes in just a matter of a couple months. You would not believe what this has done for my self-esteem and outlook on things. I almost feel like I have a new lease on life. There is nothing quite like feeling perfectly comfortable in your own skin again.

Take care! I hope you find the answers you are looking for <3

Your breast size has absolutely nothing to do with your body's ability to produce nutritious milk for your baby. Don't let anybody tell you any differently. I am a rather small woman myself and fed both of my children through their first year with little supplementation and NO formula. This isn't about being hard-core or having kids that one doesn't care about: rather, it's about doing what nature intends for your offspring.
