guess she won't be on the bottle much longer

Great. The Washington Post has an article about safety concerns with clear bottles and the use of the chemical bisphenol A, which among other things *might* cause hyperactivity and early onset of puberty. Both the popular Avent bottles and our family favorite, Dr. Brown's bottles are named as containing the chemical.

E still took a nighttime bottle until she was 18 months. She loved her some Dr. Brown's bottles. A certainly won't get that luxury now. I picked up some Sip & Smile cups the other day, and they were definitely the best-received sippy thus far. She event took an entire feeding with the cup. Looks like I'll be pressing the issue a bit further.
