Best Answer

Unless a man has an abnormal anatomy (very very rare), he will lack the mammary glands, nipple and breast structure and hormones that produce milk. He would not be able to breastfeed. Any male (dad, older brother, uncle, granddad, etc.) can, however, take the time to bottlefeed a baby and bond with it. All babies should be held and cuddled during feeding especially for the first year. This promotes bonding and attachment. It builds trust and ensures that the infant's eye contact and nurturing needs are met as well as its physical nutritional needs.
