@tgreen78 Yeah, I mean, you do what you can with the knowledge that you have. Almost everything made for consumers has some level of contamination/negative effects so the goal is just to minimize when possible.

@tgreen78 Can you send me some links on that? Everything I’ve ever read online says glass is a better alternative.

@tgreen78 From my understanding the recalls all had to do with paint. There are some glass bottles on the market with no paint. If something can’t apply to then it’s an exception and don’t take the advice.

@chelle You don’t have to buy lead contaminated bottles, but all plastic bottles will leech microplastics regardless. You can’t always make the “best” choice, but you can try to make better choices. It’s probably possible to find glass bottles for free by scoping out mom groups and buy nothing...

@olamide If you’re going to formula feed, I’d at least suggest using glass bottles to avoid microplastics.

@maerc24 What’s wrong with the question?

@olamide I wouldn’t think of it as risks, but more not receiving certain benefits. For example, nursing is generally better for teeth alignment, provides antibodies, lower risk of ear infections and allergies, but ultimately, you have to weigh the costs and benefits.
