I have used BPA free with both of my children. In 2005, when my daughter was born, I really had to search for products (Medela was my favorite). I stayed aways from glass because I don't have carpet in my home, so I thought they might break.

Both of my children were exclusively breastfed, so they didn't often need a bottle but I didn't want to take the chance. I am glad there are a lot more options out there now.

I took a lot of flack in 2005, I am glad my concerns ended up being justified! :-)

Great informative link! Thanks! for those that use Dr. Brown's too, I just saw the new BPA free bottle at Walgreens! I haven't seen them at my local Lake Wales WalMart yet though. I do use a couple of plastic sippy cups that are BPA free. I finally bought a Kleen Kantean and the darn thing leaks with the Avent Spouts. I need to order once specifically for the KK. I breastfeed and am having to supplement some to get my baby's birth weight up so when I use a bottle we are mainly using glass right now but also have the Playtex nurser set with the BPA free liners too. We love the glass bottles, especially the Born Free, but yeah, you do have to be careful! Smiler I've broken one by dropping it!

Here is a site that has some common items that have BPA- if your worried about bottles and cups you might want to start thinking about your canned foods! Water Coolers, food containers, medical equipment and some more...
