Being a new mother can be overwhelming but before you even become a Mother you’re expected to make a registry and fill it full of products you don’t know much about! We all want the safest, most trusted products. So where do the majority of us get our information? From family, friends and of course other Mothers, with the latter being the most important.
Let’s consider the simplest of products. The baby bottle. There are tons to choose from. With my first son, who I nursed and supplemented with formula I must have went through every bottle on the market. Some promised to prevent gas, some colic, some needed special inserts, and some probably had BPA in them. Since I had him in 2008 people were just becoming aware of the dangers of BPA.
By the time my second son arrived only 2 short years later I needed new bottles again but this time around since he was almost exclusively breastfed I went for a different type of bottle altogether. I relied mostly on the reviews of other Mothers to help me decide. Something I didn’t do the first time.
Born Free Eco Classic Bottles
One type of bottle Mothers love and trust are Born Free Active Flow. Their eco classic bottles are designed to reduce colic, gas and spit up. It has a special valve inside that helps minimize air ingestion. They are ideal for breast and bottle fed babies as the milk flow begins only when baby suckles. It’s very similar to the actions of breastfeeding.
No BPA, No Phthalates!
The Born Free Eco Classic Bottles have soft silicone nipples that are available in 5 flow rates from Newborn to 18 months. Most important of all? They are 100% free of BPA and Phthalates. They’re also eco-friendly!

I’m a mommy-to-be (due in dec!) and I’m looking forward to using the bottle warmer and breast pump. But then again there’s a basement full of baby things right now that I’m anxious of trying out.

I wish these were around when I had my daughter 4 years ago!
As for what I couldn’t live without were the Bumbo and Fisher Price Aquarium that attached to the crib. She would fall alseep to it every night for the longest time. It was a lifesaver!
I am expecting my first baby in May and would really like to try the Born Free bottles, I would love to win! Thank you, Molly
I have an almost 4 month old baby girl. I could NOT live without her Graco Lovin hug swing. She loves it. When she’s cranky I can put her in it for a little while and she calms right down or falls asleep.
can not live with a stroller, our little ones enjoyed taking walks
