I really think that every mother should try to breast feed. I know that it is not always easy - my wife had a hard time to start with - it is more demanding on the mother - but the rewards are so much more han giving a bottle. When I was in hospital, watching a mother giver her newborn son a bottle, it just looked so wrong. We are mammals. Mammals breastfeed. That is all there is to it.

Formula milk does not provide all the goodness that breastmilk does.
Formula does not increase boding between mother and baby
Breastfeeding does not require bottles to be washed, sterilised, milk to be prepared, stored, warmed, etc. Baby cries, on the breast, baby drinks, back to sleep.

Anyone that suggests that breastfeeding is in any way bad is just completely, totally, undoubtedly, wrong.
