Answers:
Of course it's healthy. It helps the mom to get back in shape. Nursing helps your uterus go back to size. It is especially healthy for the baby. Baby will get a dose of antibiotics from the mom for the first six month and then again when you body realized you are weening baby.
Baby get perfectly measured food source. When really hungry and sucking hard baby get high fat milk. When only needing comfort and not sucking hard baby gets lower fat or skim milk :-) if you will. Quite the design wouldn't you say?
As for your size, it does not matter. Women have been nursing for thousands of years, since the beginning of time. All sizes and shapes. Enjoy your baby and remember how he/she gazes up into your eyes as you hold him/her close during nursing. It is a time you will cherish the rest of your life.
