Why Glass Baby Bottles?

Glass baby bottles are Back!

Do you know Why?

It's because they are safe! They do not leach chemicals like BPA (bisphenol A) a hormone disruptor.

Most plastic baby bottles are made of polycarbonate that leach BPA

Where even tiny amounts of exposure to BPA can results in:

• hyperactivity
• decreased sperm count
• early puberty
• brain development problems
• cancer

From what I have read, research studies are still being conducted. Some experts have conflicting views on this issue.

While manufacturers of these plastic bottles are trying to tell us that they are safe and that they meet all the federal regulations.

Doesn't that show you that they are more concerned with protecting their unsafe products instead of our children?

It makes me absolutely furious. It seems manufacturers are using outdated regulations to protect themselves.

But in the end, I am not willing to take any risks with my precious Samantha. Just because experts are not sure.

Here are some additional tips:

• do not purchase any containers or bottles that are made of polycarbonate plastic (could be labeled PC or #7)
• bottles that have PVC should also be avoided - since they may contain phthalates (labeled #3)
• do not buy baby formula or food from cans
• avoid heating your babies food up in the microwave using polystyrene or plastics

We can also compare the main advantages and disadvantages in using glass baby feeding bottles.

Leaching of harmful chemicals is also an issue in traditional baby mattresses. The organic crib mattress industry is growing and prospering as a result.

This shows that we as parents have to be extremely informed and on top of current events and changes. From how to choose a safe crib mattress to switching to safer baby bottles . It's the least we can do for our precious little ones.

These safe baby bottles can also be very thoughtful gifts for baby showers. If you are looking for some more great ideas check out www.baby-shower-gift-ideas.com.
