I have been researching endless brands of BPA free bottles because of the hazards that exist with plastic and especially reheating plastic for baby milk/formula. I have come across a few and I have read countless reviews but now I would like the advice from some other mothers that have used these bottles. Ideally I would like to have a glass bottle because the concerns with chemicals do not exist here. However my main concern is the bottle breaking or when my child gets older and like most children do, start tossing bottles around. The last thing I want is glass to be all over or a fear of them putting it in their mouth. The next type I have looked at are the BPA free plastic bottles but my main concern with these is still the plastic. Even though the BPA is not present something else harmful could be. The brands I have considered are the following:
Evenflo classic glass bottle
Dr. Browns’ glass & plastic BPA free
BornFree glass & plastic
Evenflo BPA free plastic
Playtex Ventair BPA free
Advent BPA free
Any Suggestions?

I babysit a 2 year old potty training boy and a 4 year old girl. They are my second cousins and they both used to love me. But lately, the girl is getting very bossy and always says “your not my boss” and “Abby i dont like you” but then 10 minutes later she’ll tell me she loves me and she wants to do stuff with me. Is it just a stage or am i doing something wrong? Also, the boy is usually pretty good but he wants to be so independant. Is there anyway i can hold him back while letting him go? Like he wants to use “big boy” scissors but i tell him no because he still wears a “babies” diaper. I also want to start a daycare when in about 4 years any advice on that? I try to keep the kids i babysit on a scedule involving learning time and crafts before lunch and afterwards they get free play and sometimes a field trip.
Any answers given are appreciated!

What Advice Would You Give My Friend?

So here is how the last year of my life has played out. Due to me being kicked out in Nov of 08 I could not attened college in 09. I had to pay for my apartment and couldnt afford to pay for school. I tried to get financial aid but without my parents info it could not be completed. They refused to give me the information so I was unable to continue to attend college. Well back in December of last year I meet “Stacy” and at first things were ok as they often are at the start of a relationship. However about a month into the realationship I found out she had been flirting with a guy via txt messaging and had saved his name as a females name (Katie) so that if I came across it I wouldnt be able to figure out what she was doing. Well I came into her dads house one day and went to see her in her room. I went in and she turned her phone off and said she just wanted to spend time with me. Ok I thought that was sweet and didnt think that much about it. Well one of her dads finaces cats died so I went outside and helped bury the cat. When I came back in she was in her room with the door closed and txting. I came in and asked her why she was on her phone and she made up something and quickly left the room. Well her phone went off several times so I said you have a txt. I opened it up and read the txt so I could respond since she had told me to do that. What she didnt realize was they guy she had been talking to didnt get her message about not to txt till later. Well we had a huge fight over it and the txts that I had read that they had been sending each other. But like the sucker I am I forgave her and we continued to go out. Well about 5 months into the relationship things were not good. She was lying to me all the time and twisting things around so that I was the one at fault. And the sad part is I believed it and I felt that I was the problem and that I was doing something wrong. Well we found out in May that she was pregnant (another lie that she told me was that she was on the pill) and come to find out she had not been on the pill for almost 3 months. I was so pissed that she had used me just so she could have a child. Which is all she could talk about when we first meet. Well I had decided that I was going to end the relationship after our 6 month mark yet she sprung this on me about a week before that. I thought long and hard about it and decided that I was going to stick it out and try to make sure that my son was able to grow up in a home with a mom and a dad. Well that was a bad mistake. When I was at work once again she was flirting with guys online and on her Im while I was at work. This started another huge fight and all she could say was how dare me stress her out and the baby out by talking about it and that she was not going to talk about it. Well at that point I didnt know what to do. I couldnt kick her out (her dad had kicked her out about a month before that because she refused to do something he had asked and she had lied to him). So I couldnt kick her out and so I let it go. I continued to get the bashing from her about how I wasnt trusting and that I should just dump her. I had decided to stick it out and try to make it work for the baby. Well I wound up getting laid off and so she went to live at my parents house and I have been crashing on my friends couch every night. Every last dollar I have gotten has gone to her. I have a riped jack, shoes that are so torn that they are actually hurting my feet…. ect…. Well this last saturday she sent me an email saying that she was done and felt that she deserved better and that she would be expecting child support from me and that she didnt know how visitations would go. So right now I am one big mess. I love this kid so much but now I cant be an everyday part of his life. I am suffering with nothing to my name while she lives at my parents… gets free baby stuff and eats whatever she wants all so that I can give everything I have to her. So thats my story in a nut shell.

Baby Shower Question…please, Some Advice! Thanks?

My husband and I are expecting our first boy next month. (He has a daughter & I have 2). He considers my daughters as his too but this will be both of our 1st boy. I have NEVER had a baby shower before and my husband and I were wondering if we could throw our own baby shower. We don’t want to seem selfish but we would just like a baby shower for our son.
I never had one with my 2 kids, because my baby daddy never cared about what i would like or anything. & because he never really allowed me to be with my friends or family. but my husband now is in FULL support.
What do you think? We dont want people thinking we are just throwing a shower to get free stuff out of them, we just want to have an experience. Please give me some advice, Thank You!

saw my midwife today and heard baby heart beat and baby doing fine does anyone know any websites to get free baby stuff

Both of us work full time and we have expensive day care so we never have enough money or free time.
Is life this hard for all parents like this or are we doing something wrong?
