  • I am worried about BPA from my Dr. Brown's baby bottles.?

    Every morning I pour 4 oz of Enfamil into my Dr. Brown's plastic bottles. I would store those formula bottles in the fridge and probably use all 8 bottles in 24 hours. When I take a bottle from the fridge, I would warm the bottle in my First Years bottle warmer.

    At the end of the day I would clean the bottles and nipples with hot soapy water and then sterilize it in my Dr. Brown's Microwave Sterilizer (which is a container that you pour 6 oz of tap water, and microwave for 5 minutes).

    I just found out about BPA and I want to know if what I'm doing to the bottles also releases that BPA chemical. I keep hearing about boiling the bottles. I'm not boiling, but I am steaming it. I'm not sure if the bottle warmer is boiling the bottles though.

    Need advice. Thank you.
