breast feeding?

So i plan on breast feeding with my first baby <3 right now i am almost 25 weeks along but i am already leaking colostrum. My family thinks that the baby should do formula also but im worried about nipple confusion and her not wanting to breast feed once bottle fed. Should i just tell them nicely that my baby is gunna be nipple fed only and to shove off lol :) (i say that jokeingly i love my fam but really i wanna breast feed)

My dad wants me to try bottle feeding so i can go bk to college sooner but imma worry about my baby first. Once she gets old enough then maybe i would switch to bottle but i want to be with my baby and bond for as long as i can <3 ill go back to college when i can

My baby is 4 weeks and all I have been doing is breastfeeding no formula or anything.I didn't want ti bottle feed him for the confusion but now that he is 4 weeks old I'm going to pump and put it in a bottle.
And I would tell your family to butt out. It's  not their choice it's yours. Breastfeeding has antibiotics that your baby needs and its an amazing bonding experience with your baby and you!
