Even once would be a HUGE risk and once is enough for disaster. The general rule of thumb for Yorkies is not to breed a female under 5 lbs, minimum. Your girl is considerably less than that. Even then, you have to make sure that the pelvic structure of such a small gal can handled carrying a litter. Breeding such a small girl increases the chances of having to have a c-section, it could result in a ruptured uterus, etc. Definitely NOT worth it.
I would suggest that you find a mentor to spend time with in advance...see first hand what goes on if you are curious to get a first hand glance of it all.
