I currently use Gerber Gentle Flow on my son. IT was listed on the webpage http://amomsblog.wordpress.com/2008/04/09/bpa-free-bottles-and-sippy-cups/ so in other words, it is BPA Free and is safe to use. Am I correct in saying this?

Vanessa,
SafeMama created this list and I trust her research, so if it is on the list, yes, it’s safe. For your own confidence, give Gerber a call and ask them. That will just give you some reassurance! Their number is 800-4GERBER

I have some AVENT baby bottles. Do you know how can I get a refund?
Thanks

Hi Clara,
Ask at the store in which they were purchased. Some are offering refunds, exchanges or store credit. If that’s a no-go, contact the manufacturer to see what they will do for you. I believe I heard Avent is planning on making a BPA-free version, but I don’t know if that’s true nor do I know any details of when that may happen.
Good luck!
