I ordered some chemical & toxin free bottles

TwinMama08 · #1 (**permalink**) 04-09-2008, 02:53 PM

I just ordered bottles that are chemical/toxin free for the babies. I intend on breastfeeding but I never can make enough milk so I want to be prepared. Plus I can not give them baby juice from my boobs anyhow.. so they will need bottles for the white grape jucie and apple juice and all that jazz when they start on juice eventually. I actually ordered bottles by Green to Grow last week but I wanted to get a few more bottles to have on hand.

Today I ordered bottles by:
♥Nuby♥
♥Think Baby♥
♥Green to Grow♥
♥Born Free♥

I have to send Aaron to babies r us for one of those hideous maternity belts tomorrow. I am in extreme pain. My belly is enormous, hangs low anmd is super heavy. So I am in MUCH PAIN.
I found a maternity belt thing that is supposed to be good for those having twins.

I think I am ordering everything else we need for the babies online.

With the back and rib pain, swelling in my feet, ankles, and lower legs... Shopping is hard!!.

The doctor said everything looks good though, no diabetes, no preeclampsia.. just normal stuff with a twin pregnancy is all..

Thanks for the links about the bottles. Have you heard if Avent has theirs out yet? I was thinking of using their disposables (similar to the Platex Nursers w/ drop-ins). I heard they were going BPA free.
