Bottle feeding: You are lucky to have helpers in the care of your new baby. A generation of babies grew up bottle fed; a new generation is in the care of a nanny or daycare center while mum goes back to work. When you are with your baby, hold her, talk to her, listen to her. She will know you are her mother. Attachment is not all about breastfeeding.
