I use BPA free bottles and pacifiers.

I use Born Free bottles and The First Years pacifiers.

I pump breastmilk and give formula as I do not pump enough for breastmilk alone.

I nurse but I pump and give a bottle once a week just so he will take it if I need him to. I use playtex drop in and ventair (he actually likes the vent air better and they are not bpa free) he uses a soothie paci. I don’t heat the bottles up so I really don’t worry about it. I think people are blowing it pretty out of control..esp if you formula feed because the containers also have bpa in them.

No. Until a week or so ago I had never heard of BPA or it being harmful. I’m not completely convinced it’s as harmful as they say. Especially if the bottle companies are continuing to make the product and the stores aren’t taking them off the shelves until next year.

Yes, I do. I am not 100% sure that BPA is harmful but I’d rather err on the safe side with my baby.

I primarily breasfeed but on the few occasions I bottlefeed I use Playtex drop ins or Evenflo glass bottles.

My daughter doesn’t take pacifiers.

I bought glass Dr. Browns because my girlfriend said after trying numerous bottles those worked the best for less gas and tummy upsets. I take the plastics thing seriously. Glass is way better.

I breastfed and formula fed for 5 months. NOw formula and solid food. Baby never took to nursing so I would pump into a bottle. He ate so much taht lactation specialist at hospital when he was born told me I would have to suppliment breast milk with formula.

As far as pacis- he doesn’t use one. Once in a while when he was firtsborn, but that’s it. I used th eone they gave me in the hospital.
