Silicone bottles: the latest in BPA-free bottles

September 22, 2008

I had heard about a silicone baby bottle and thought, what in the world is that? So I Googled it (like I do everything!) and it sounds very interesting! The Innobaby Silicone bottle is derived from safe, natural ingredients like pebbles and sand and grow with your baby. This bottle will be available January 2009.

In poking around, I saw on The Soft Landing blog that Momo is also coming out with a silicone baby bottle in October, so just a few short weeks. And Nuby is coming out with a silicone bottle in January 2009 as well.

Check back and I will post when these are available and where to buy.

Did you say they grow with your baby? I wonder how that works! Thanks for the post.

Ah, yes, let me clarify, they have interchangable parts that go from a bottle, to a sippy cup to a sports bottle.
