Small breasts?

Question

Everyone who’s shared a photo here has been very top heavy. I’m typically a large a/small b, and now I’m more of a full b at 22 weeks.Is my breast size going to have any effect on my ability to BF? I ask because I’ve literally never seen a small chested woman BF-ing. I want to be realistic going into this.

Answer

I am a negative A. Literally my boobs don't even fill an A cup. I have successfully breastfed for 19 months. :)

Answer

Think about it. What would have happened to all the baby’s born to small chested women before the invention of formula if chest size had anything to do with it.
You will be just fine. I definitely recommend taking a breastfeeding class before your baby arrives so you have a bit of knowledge going into it.

Answer

I will say when I first started nursing my breasts BLEW UP from the milk but as my supply got used to baby's demands, they shrunk back down to my typical A cup. Your body will produce what baby needs regardless of chest size. Even if you think your empty you're boobs are producing constantly. They're factories, not warehouses ;)

Answer

My hospital's lactation consultant was a hilariously sarcastic lady who occasionally made highly inappropriate comments.
During one session, when I was upset about my flat and inverted nipples, she rolled her eyes and said she had seen Chinese ladies come in with completely flat chests and nipples a foot long (clearly exaggerating here people), and they were able to breastfeed.
So no...size doesn't matter. 😂

Answer

I've seen plenty of smaller chested ladies BF. side note, your boobs will likely get bigger.

Answer

Nope. Breast size has nothing to do with production. Before my implants, I was an AA and a B when breastfeeding. Both of my kids bf for a year or more without issue.

Answer

I am a small B cup I breast fed perfectly. My son was healthy and satisfied. What makes up breasts is mostly fat. After my milk came in (3days pp) my breast became a small C cup and when I finished breast feeding the little girls went right back to being exactly how they were before.

Answer

No issue here! I've always been small framed and no boobs😕 but I've fed both my boys for as long as I could with no issues! My breasts always stayed bigger while feeding. I'm due in 7 days and can't wait to give it another go round! You'll be fine!!

Answer

I'm normally a small b and I've bf all of my kids including pumping exclusively for my first whom my parents adopted at birth. 
I didn't struggle with getting my milk ever or having a good supply (I'm just obsessed with having a very high supply so I do things to improve it). However I did get mastitis twice but that's unrelated to size. 
This is the longest I've nursed and we are going strong for 15 months now and my cup size has been a small C since my milk leveled off and I stopped getting so engorged. 
My mom was barely an A cup and she bf both me and my sister until 18-20 months with no problems.

Answer

It makes absolutely no difference. I've always been barely an A and only grow to barely B when nursing. I exclusively breastfed my three other babies for 16 months, 2 years, and then 17 months. No issue with milk supply! In fact I had a hard time getting my supply to slow down and stop when I wanted to wean my last baby.
