If you’re a new mom or a mom-to-be, you’ve probably felt the pressure. There’s a huge misconception that your ability to nourish your baby is tied to your cup size. We see it everywhere—the assumption that “big” means “plenty” and “small” means “struggle.”

The Reality: Don’t let big breasts confuse you. Breast size is mostly made up of fatty tissue, which is just the “packaging.” However, breast milk is produced in the glandular tissue.

A woman with a small chest can have just as much (or more!) milk-producing tissue as a woman with a large chest. Milk production is a “supply and demand” factory—the more your baby nurses, the more milk your body makes. Your bra size has nothing to do with your “factory output.”

What we are trying to say is: Motherhood is already a high-pressure job; don’t add “size anxiety” to the list. Whether you’re an A-cup or a DD, your body is fully equipped to show up for your baby. Trust the process, not the padding.
