I didn't breastfeed my child and he doesn't get sick(knock on wood) he only goes to the doctor for check ups and hes 3 and far as the bonding part goes well we bonded just fine, no problem there... I know how ya feel tho some people think they just know it all and for a man to say something like that well how does he think the child and the father bond since the man doesn't breastfeed? but try not to let it bother you. You are the only one that knows whats best for you and your child
