Safe Baby Bottle Alternatives
Fortunately, there are alternatives to polycarbonate plastic baby bottles.
First, learn to identify polycarbonate plastic containers. They are generally clear and rigid, and may have the recycling symbol 7 marked on the bottom.
Here are a few tips for choosing bottles and using them safely:

* To avoid bacteria, look for scratches in plastic bottles.
* Avoid plastic bottles that have decorations printed on the inside. These can come off into formula when it’s been heated.
* To avoid shards of glass ending up inside the bottle, glass bottles with cracks and chips should be discarded immediately.
* Avoid disposable nursers if possible, as the plastic bags that may leak or burst. There have also been incidents of babies choking on the plastic tab inside.
i read on another website (about the baby bottles) that playtex w/drop ins were safe to use.
I have always used the playtex drop ins and they were so easy the baggies.. I wonder if those are included in the bad bad ones..
I looked at the born free even bought some, but I took them back. At $ 9.00 a bottle I couldn't believe it. I am going to use the playtex drop in and mix as I need so nothing has to be heated.
so am i. i think so but i will duble check.
are they the nursing friendly kind??? I'm planning on breastfeeding along with bottle feeding.
i myself am going with the born free brand that doesnt contain the bisphenal a. it comes in plastic and glass and babys r us carries it.
