Baby Bottle - Plastic Or Glass?
Bisphenol A(BPA) is a chemical using in the harden process of many plastics products including plastic baby bottles.
Some study links BPA to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and developmental problems in children.
Recent research has shown that after heated, five of the most popular brands of polycarbonate used in baby bottles leaches BPA at levels high enough to cause harm in laboratory animals.
BPA is also a synthetic hormone with estrogen-like properties.
This may affect later development problem of the children.
Who wants that nasty stuff in our babies' bottle? Although many major manufacturers claim that their products are absolutely BPA free, we only have one baby.
Why bother? The simple solution is: Use GLASS bottles.
Old fashion is cool.
Historically, regular glass bottles are used for long term ultra high pure liquid content storage.
The best baby bottles we found is Evenflo Sensitive Response Clear Bottle.
It comes in 8 oz.
or 4 oz.
bottles.
It is not only safe, but also inexpensive.
A 3-bottle pack costs less than five bucks ($1.
7 each).
Some same size plastic bottles may cost as much as $9 each.
Sure glass baby bottles are heavy and breakable.
I have had a baby care giver complained to me that the baby bottle we used is too heavy for the baby to hold.
So? I am glad that my baby will develop stronger muscles compare to the baby who uses plastics bottler.
I have two boys.
My older one is 8 years old.
So far we have not broken any glass bottles yet.
Give us a break!
