Breastfeeding?

Hey, I'm a FTM and I really wanna know the thing about breastfeeding. Do your boobs get back to normal later or do they sagg? Idk anything of this just need people to answer. They told me it's best for the baby to be breast fed so they can be chunky and healthy, But my sister never breast fed and my niece and nephew look perfectly fine to me

Yes, I believe they do go back. I'm going to breastfeed.  If helps your baby not get sick the first few weeks and also breast milk can heal an eye infection if the baby gets one you can put some in its eye. Your nipples absorb the babys saliva,  so if baby gets sick you will make antibodies in your milk to make it better.

Pregnancy will make boobs sag from relaxing hormones and ur boobs get big regardless.  Lots of lo do just fine on formula but I bf for a yr and have no regrets. Formula u can tell how much they are eating and can have everyone else ferd baby but u can also pump n have someone feed em and it can keep em fuller for a lil longer cuz it takes longer to digest. Bfing its FREE burns calories without even thinking of it changes composition for ur babys needs even night milk is different never recalled makes babys poop smell way better reduces all kinds of diseases for u and lo I think its easier since u dont have to wash warm n prepare bottles alllll the time all u need is ur boob. If u bf watch lots of videos and read up cuz u probably will have some soreness but its a learning process for u and baby so be patient and it will get better. I highly recommend trying it at least
