Yep, ignore the 'breast is best' nazi's if there's any reason why the baby can't be breast fed, or even if it's a decision your wife makes independant of any circumstances which are out of her control.
This is your child, and you're the one who loves it. Not them.
Neither of my two were breast fed and they're both top of their class, so I defy anyone to tell me that if you don't breast feed, your child will be less intelligent. Also, they're healthy as horses and always have been.
Sure it's a nice bonding experience, and I definitely advocate the natural alternative against the processed one in all food types, but if it doesn't happen for whatever reason, definitely don't lose sleep over it, and definitely don't let your wife feel guilty about it.
It's no one's business but your own.
