@Liorra I tried the glass and didn’t like it my daughter won’t hold it and I would burn my hand everytime I got it out of the warmer or the milk would still be cold annoying
Oh no! Which Phillips avent? I’m using the avent colic. I have 20 bottles
There’s a cover for glass bottles and also it’s just when heating up your bottles so if you don’t heat up them you are fine!
Also after sterilizing ringer eith water and let dry before use
Rinse with*
I went and asked for some help researching the advantage of glass bottles using perplexity AI. Seems worth it to make the switch!! Glass bottles are significantly more effective than polypropylene (PP) bottles in preventing microplastic exposure, especially for infants and young children. Here are the key points: 1. No microplastic release: Glass bottles do not release microplastics or other harmful toxins, unlike PP bottles which can release millions of microplastic particles per liter[1][2]. 2. Temperature resistance: Glass bottles, particularly those made of borosilicate glass, are stable even at high temperatures used for sterilization. PP bottles release more microplastics when exposed to high temperatures[2][3]. 3. Chemical resistance: Glass resists chemical and acid degradation, eliminating concerns about harmful chemicals leaching into milk or formula[2]. 4. Durability: Glass bottles are more resistant to scratches, which can harbor bacteria in plastic bottles. This means
This means glass bottles don't need to be replaced as frequently[2]. 5. Ease of cleaning: Glass bottles are easier to clean and sanitize thoroughly, as they can withstand high temperatures without degradation[2]. 6. Long-term use: Glass bottles can be reused indefinitely without losing quality or purity[2]. While glass bottles have some disadvantages, such as being heavier and potentially breakable, their ability to prevent microplastic exposure makes them a superior choice for reducing infants' and children's exposure to these particles[2][3]. For those who prefer plastic, alternatives like PPSU (polyphenylsulfone) bottles may offer better resistance to microplastic release than PP bottles[3].
Based on the search results, it appears that most glass baby bottles do use some plastic components, particularly in the caps or collars. However, there are a few options that minimize or eliminate plastic: 1. Pura Kiki stainless steel bottles are mentioned as being 100% plastic-free. While not glass, they offer a plastic-free alternative[1]. 2. Mason Bottles makes a system that uses mason jars with steel collars and silicone nipples, eliminating plastic[1]. 3. Natursutten Glass Baby Bottles use borosilicate glass for the bottle and natural rubber for the nipple. However, it's not explicitly stated if the cap is plastic-free[3]. 4. HEVEA Wide Neck Baby Glass Bottles claim to be completely plastic-free, using borosilicate glass for the bottle and 100% natural rubber for both the nipple and cap[4]. 5. Some bottles, like Avent, use mostly glass and silicone components, with minimal plastic that doesn't contact the liquid[1].
@Isa🌸 you are so kind In Taking the time to share your research. This is going to help so many.
@Stacey ohh damn :/
What do you think about comotomo bottles
