No worries: Nothing is wrong with you. Everyone is born with a different quantity and anatomy of breast glands that produce milk. I have rarely seen women unable to breast feed. You may need the guidance of a lactation consultant. You can also do some hormone tests. Please see a lactation consultant during the pregnancy and right after the birth of your baby. Good Luck!
