Give it a try: Some of my most successful breastfeeding moms would be classified by some as least likely to suceed if judged by their breast size. One has contributed to the local bank for premi's since her she makes far more than her healty newborn can drink. Motivation, diet and patience will go a long way toward success in this area. (along with a good lactation coach).

Not an Issue: The size of your breasts have no bearing on how much milk you will produce once lactating. Breastfeeding is great for the babies health and is a great way for the two of you to bond once he or she is delivered. If for some reason you do have issues with breastfeeding starting out, a lactation specialist is a great resource for tips and technique. Congratulations and good luck!
