New Mom's Information on Bottles

Mommies out there, There are so many bottles on the market today that it is hard to find one your baby takes to, especially if you are a breastfeeding mom (which I am not, I must say). So, here are my suggestions on bottles that Anderson has tried: *Playtex Ventaire was the first real bottle we tried on Anderson, and he liked it pretty good. However, at that time, we started hearing more and more about what BPA can possibly do to a growing infant, and that brand did not have any BPA-free bottles. So, we switched. (Also, I think it's interesting how a tampon company makes baby bottles, too... Think about it!) *Born Free: this is a BPA-free bottle and VERY expensive. we got two of them and used them for awhile. But, Anderson just started playing with the nipple as he got older (he's 5.5 months now) because it is so flimsy. So, we quit using those... *Dr. Brown's BPA-free Plastic Bottles: OK, so the multiple parts to this bottle might scare some people. But, if you have a good dishwasher and these Munchkin dishwasher baskets (http://www.munchkin.com/products/detail.html?section=prodCategories&ID=10019&pID=18 ~ the straw holder holds the internal air vent tubes perfectly), then the cleaning of the bottles are not bad at all. We do have 15 bottles, so we have enough to keep us going each day. This is perfect, too, because it forces us to do dishes EVERY DAY because we run the dishwasher EVERY DAY. No worries, we do have a water saving dishwasher. Ha! *Playtex Drop ins: we use this bottle system when traveling. I really like the handiness of it, but I wish they would make just nipples and collars for the bottles, so I can keep using the same drop in holder. Now, we have to wait everytime we use this system. Phoowy!! Well, that's my two cents. if anyone has any other input, please let me know...
