Question

Is breast feeding better and does it really affect the shape of ones breast.?

Answer 1

Breastfeeding is definitely better.

At 30 and in a committed relationship, I'm past the point of caring what my b*****s look like.  If my fiance doesn't like them, he knows where the door is.  ;)

I wouldn't say my b*****s are shaped any differently, but my nipples are a bit bigger.

Answer 2

I feel it is better, and after 4 breastfed children, my b*****s don't look too bad.  lol

Answer 3

Everyone else pretty much hit on it, except it will make your nipples bigger.

Answer 4

Yes, breastfeeding is better!  

Answer 5

it's pregnancy itself that affects the shape of the b*****s, not nursing.

Answer 6

Yes

It also is better for the child's immunity,

brain development and general growth

of everything so who should care about

the changes to the breast.

It's the natural thing to do

Which is always best for both Mother and child.

Studies have found it helps in diverting breast

cancer.

I say use them or possibly lose them.

That's what they were made for.

As long as the mother takes care of herself.

Answer 7

Breastfeeding is much healthier for you and your baby, no doubt about it.

As far as the shape of your b*****s is concerned, plastic surgeons now believe that the pregnancy itself is what changes your b*****s more than anything.  Whether or not you breastfeed doesn't have anything to do with it.

Answer 8

Breast feeding is better and your baby getting the propor nutrients should win over the apearence of your b*****s.  

Answer 9

Breast feeding is recommended, but you should do what is right for you and your baby!!  

Pregnancy is what affects the b*****s...not breastfeeding.

It's very hard to do, but if you commit to it, you can find a way!!  I worked 50+ ours a week and nursed until my son was 11 months.  Didn't think I was going to when I was preggo, but gave it a shot and it was just too darn easy and saved too much money!!  

Answer 10

Of course breast feeding is better. It is an all natural substance that is specially formulated to meet your baby's specific nutritional needs, more easily digested than formula, etc. Just google it.

Answer 11

It will make your baby heavier, help them develope stronger muscles and make them more alert.  But dont feel bad if you use formula, it will  not make your baby stupid or anything.  It makes your b*****s totally different, they get huge and then after they go smaller then they were before, your nipples also get big but once you ween they go back to normal.  Sometimes your breast will be different sizes, its worth it though!

Answer 12

Breast feeding is not only better for your babies nutritional needs, but it's better for you!  Studies have shown that breastfeeding can help you with losing the extra pounds after giving birth.

As far as for feeding your baby, your breast milk is customized for your baby. . . your body made the baby, it knows what to feed the cutie!  Breastmilk contains specific antibodies that really aren't found in formula, along with DHA and ARA that are all natural because they are made by your body - they help with brain development.  While you can find this in formula now, your body still knows best!

Breastfeeding, the act itself, is also wonderful for you and baby!  It's a great way to bond and help your baby develop.  Babies really thrive on the extra contact with Mommy.

I'm still breastfeeding, so I don't know what happens after you stop breastfeeding.  It does enlarge your b*****s by about a full cup size while feeding.

Answer 13

Women who breastfeed for 2 years or more in their life are much less likely to get breast cancer. Babies who BF have much fewer ear infections. And I could go on and on. I have been heavily BFing for 15 months and my b*****s still look great. Check out the link below for much more info. I LOVE that site.  

Answer 14

breastfeeding is better  even formula companies will tell you that.

breastfeeding can change the shape of your breast but I breast fed for 14 months and my b*****s actually still look almost the same as they did before.
