wohooo.... i like this quote here
" It could even be that because breast-feeding takes longer, the mother is interacting more with the baby, talking with the baby, soothing the baby," he said. "It could be an emotional thing. It could be a physical thing. Or it could be a hormone or something else in the milk that's absorbed by the baby."

with breastfeeding you have to have your baby close to your ..if you are formula/bottle feeding it can be just as easy to have your baby lying down in their bed and you feed them this way but you would not get that same bond.

I did try giving my daughter EBM when we went to a wedding once but it didnt feel right feeding her from a bottle so decided to feed her myself.
