Just say no to BPA
My head is spinning from all of the emails from friends who have heard about all of the research being released about plastic baby bottles, sippy cups, pacifiers, tableware, utensils, feeding aids, pumping supplies, etc that contain BPA. I just found out I have been using the wrong type of bottles all along too and they leak BPA into my sweet child's body. We go out and buy the best car seats, the fancy strollers, and the 400 thread count organic sheets, but we use pacis and baby bottles that leak BPA? I think not! I just purchased a few of the bottles that are BPA free from thinkbaby.
The company produces PES (polyether sulfone) plastic bottles and sippy cups. And stainless steel and plastic drink bottles for adults as thinksport.
First of all what the hell is BPA anyways right?Bisphenol-A is a hormone-disrupting chemical considered to be potentially harmful to human health and the environment. It has been known that scratched and worn polycarbonate feeding bottles will leach this chemical into liquids.
I am tired and weary but I have so much more information to share with you.
I will leave you with this list of companies that produce BPA free baby items & and a few images that makes me smile.

Thanks for the list! I am actually off to buy all new bottles myself today! SHEESH!
THANK YOU! You inspired me to check all of my baby's products. I am so alarmed that we have been feeding her out of a sippy cup that is made with a toxic substance.
Dr Browns BPA free bottles are available at Babies r Us...just got mine today!!!!!!!
I bought new sippy cups last night too -- I found that Boon and Nuby have the cheapest ones. jen,hair chick
