So I'm inspired by the other post that says questions for STMs that FTMs want to ask. Does the color of your nipples go back to the color they once were before being pregnant? Cause mine have gotten darker and I don't love it...
I had the same question in my head earlier...also, will our nipples go back to normal size after breastfeeding & whatnot?! I feel like mine are huge now...hahaha.

The good news is that my nipples went back to normal (both color and size) but the bad news for me is that they aren't as perky. My boobs are pretty big though so I am sure that didn't help. I breastfed about 5 months if that makes a difference.

Prior to DS my nipples whatnot were pretty small. They did not go back to the way they were. But I've gotten used to it.

Breastfeeding won't effect your 'perkiness' sadly pregnancy is what causes sagging. So all of us are just as much at risk of looking like an 80 year old post baby. :

After breastfeeding for 6 months, my nipples went back to the way they were prior to pregnancy. My boobs on the other hand, I lost a cup size and they flatten out at the top and hung much lower than before. From gaining and losing weight most of my teen/adult years, my boobs were never perky to begin with. I have to say that my boobs changing was my least favorite thing about becoming a Mom. I couldn't wait to see them get full again this time around. I get to wear all of my old bras I couldn't fit into anymore.
Before ds, I wore a 36A. After ds, a 36C or 38B. Now I'm a 40DD. Not sure how much smaller they'll get this time around. My moms didn't shrink.
My nipples turned brown with DS. And they got huge. They shrank down and the normal color returned after I quit BFing. Now they're brown again.
My linea nigra also disappeared in between pregnancies.
My belly button was never the same. It was bigger and floppier after ds.
My hair got super thick and curly with ds. Some fell out after, but it stayed pretty wavy. This time around, it fell out in clumps. It's stopped doing that now, thank God. And it's pretty straight.
A lot of things change, but I think most go back to normal.

Dang it!
My nips are normally pretty much the same color as my skin. I mean there is a difference, but it not a lot.
I love my super dark nips- I know how crazy that sounds. I was kind of hoping they would stay darkish. It's like I have a brand new pair of boobies

When I was 16, my sister and I asked my mom what was the deal with her nipples. They are maroon and huge. And all she said was "You did this to me."
So hers never went back, but she never breastfed us.
My aereolas are HUGE. I'm going to have to start wearing turtlenecks to avoid nip slips.
I am suddenly overcome with the urge to write a children's book called "Whose Boobs Are These?"
