There's an interesting conversation happening right now surrounding plastic baby bottles. A recent report from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) highlighted dangers associated with reheating certain types of plastic in microwaves and dishwashers. For bottle-fed babies, this data might be unsettling, as many parents frequently use the dishwasher to sanitize bottles and sippy cups.
Since heat could potentially leak BPA and phthalates into the bottles (they're not suggesting that it's definitely happening), you can avoid this potential hazard entirely by opting to use glass bottles instead. Find out what's on the market and see what's right for your baby.
