Breasts: Small Versus Large

Breasts come in all shapes and sizes. Many women are led to believe that the size of one’s breasts will determine their ability to produce milk. Not true. Most of us are blessed with an ample amount of mammary (glandular) tissue that is responsible for making milk. Our mammary glands make up only a portion of our breast tissue. The rest is adipose (fat) tissue and is the greatest contributor to breast size. Women with large breasts will not necessarily make any more milk than those with small breasts. So, don’t let your breast size be your guide. Remember, breasts may be small…but they will be mighty!!!
