Apparantly they have milk glands under their nipples - not as big as ours but they can still be stimulated enough to produce milk. If you google 'father's who breastfeed' there are quite a few articles on the subject, check google images to see pictures of men actually breastfeeding! What do you think? Would you trust them to do it right?!?!?
