Concerned about news reports exposing a toxic chemical, bisphenol A, in many plastic baby bottles? I know I am. And even though I’m nursing my little one, I can only imagine how I’m expressing pure and beneficial breastmilk directly into toxic bottles. Yikes. So I was relieved to learn that all of Medela’s products which come into direct contact with breastmilk are made of BPA-free plastic.

Isis Maternity has been working toward becoming BPA-free, restocking glass and BPA-free bottles from Medela, Born Free and Dr. Brown’s glass as fast as they become available. The experts at Isis are also looking into other BPA-free brands of bottles, but first, bottles must be tested by Isis’s lactation consultants, to make sure that they meet the high standards for recommendation.

What about sippy cups, tableware, pacifiers, feeding aids? Thankfully, the good folks at Z Recommends have compiled an indispensable directory of BPA-free products. And as always, the staff at Isis Maternity centers can help you make the best choices.
