no, im still using plastic. Gerber Gentleflow which is BPA free. My son literally throws the bottles sometimes.. so its safer than glass.

Yup, we're using glass bottles, mind you our little one is only 6 weeks old.

any suggestions on where to buy glass bottles? toysrus.com sells a 6pack of evenflo glass bottles (http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2864794) for $10 USD. closest i've been able to find online and shipping to canada is the same pack for about $15 on ebay (+$20 shipping) :mad:

We've done some research into bottles (we're expecting our first in June) and we've decided to go with glass. Ash101 also posted that Smuckers 250ml jam jars will accept the Avent tops so for $2 you get great jam and a re-usable bottle.

We switched from the Avent bottles to Nuby which claim to be BPA free. I kept the Avent bottles in case they recall them and maybe we can get some sort of credit.

Still using Avent.
Why? cause I didn't look into the BPA issue and am ignorant on the subject.
Not to mention that glass sounds like a dangerous idea...considering the amount of times the bottle lands on the floor in a day.
