breastfeeding feeding or formula?

Which is better? Do breastfeeding actually make your nipples go all weird and never be the same again?

Bfing is totally free u just need to get enough calories and drink water and there are mannnnny other benefits. My areolas got way bigger during pregnancy but they went back to normal size within 3 months of bfing and I fed for a full yr actual nipple sticks out a bit more after feeding but does NOT stay out and it will not make ur boobs sag either pregnancy can do that

I'm leaning more towards breastfeeding whether nipples go funny or not. But I was just wondering if that's true. Plus it costs less to breastfeeding feed than buy formula

Breast feeding is waaay better for your baby.  It would be kind of selfish to deprive your baby of ask the benefits just because you think you nipples will "go all weird" and no it don't make your nipples weird. They do get longer at feeding but that's only so baby can latch on. I breast fed for 2 1/2 years and mine didn't change.

No your nipples don't go all weird. I breast fed my son for almost 2 years with a bottle if course cause once teeth came in he got kicked off the boobie lol

Breast feeding is a lot better for you and the baby! Formula has a ton of chemicals in it. Plus breastfeeding helps you out with weight and hormones. I had to stop with my first at 3 months but I am so happy I got to for even 3 months.
