The Correct Way to Handle Baby Bottles

If you are planing on bottle feeding your new born or you already are bottle feeding your infant it is important that you handle the bottles correctly to avoid your baby from being unhealthy. You want to have a healthy and a happy baby. You should keep the baby bottles clean and store them in the fridge to stop any harmful germs from growing, the germs might cause some stomach problems.

Always use a brush to thoroughly clean the bottles, teats, and bottle caps. Boiling is a favorite method for sterilizing bottles once they are washed, but it is important to remember to boil the bottles steadily for a minimum of five minutes.

Before you mix the formula you must boil the water you will be mixing it with and let it completely cool. When the water is boiled it takes most of the additives out that could ham your baby. Use a bottle only one time then clean it again using the same process.

Never leave mixed formula at room temperature for more than an hour. So if taking formula out with you, either use a diaper bag designed to keep the bottles cold, or plan on feeding your baby within the hour. Another great option if you are formula feeding your baby is to use powered formula and take the boiled water separately this will let you mix the formula when it is needed.

Any formula that is opened will not keep very long. If it is a bottle of unused formula it is good for 24 hours after it has been opened. Ready use formula that is opened is good for 48 hour after it has been opened. Powered formula is good for one month after it has been opened. If your baby has not drank all the formula in their bottle, you need to throw the unused portion away, germs will go into the leftover milk.

There are special grips which make opening and removing the sterilizer from the microwave easier. BornFree is made of a new, safe, honey-colored plastic called Polyamide (PA) that is free of Bisphenol-A, a chemical that is shown to leach from other bottles that are made of Polycarbonate. BornFree's special plastic is also more resistant to detergents. What is Bisphenol-A? Bisphenol A is used in the production of epoxy resins and polycarbonate plastics. In February 2005 a new EU standard for testing feeding bottles was introduced throughout Europe. These tests have always included checks for well known dangerous chemicals such as lead and mercury in the components of the bottle. However from the above date manufacturers will now have to test for leaching of Bisphenol-A. It has been known for some time that scratched and worn polycarbonate feeding bottles will leach this chemical. A report published in the UK in March 2004 showed that polycarbonate bottles of all types leach increasing levels of Bisphenol-A as they are used and sterilized.
