I heard that plastic bottles release harmful chemicals into our childrens milk or formula.  Should we switch back to glass bottles.

i really think it's a metter of preference. there are millions of kids out there who were fed with a plastic bottle and are doing fine. plastic is much more durable than glass. i don't know.. i guess it's up to you.

I love the glass bottles!! Born free makes "toxic chemical free" plastic bottles as well but I am still partial to glass mainly because they cause less pollution in the long run. No matter what type of plastic you use it takes more energy to make than glass and a lot of plastics can't be reused and end up in the landfills. sorry...i sometimes sound preachy so I'll shut up now!!!
