Bonding

This is a page about bonding from the book "spiritual midwifery" by Ina May Gaskin. How do you feel about this definition and explanation of bonding?
I have not yet experienced giving birth, so I don't know if people actually feel this while bonding with their child- what do you think? Do you think the bonding you may or may not have experienced directly affecting your relationship with your child?
(this is not a mommy shaming post- just food for thought!)
