Silicon Baby Bottles to replace plastic ones

This is little of India but when I heard that the Sixth largest baby bottle manufacturers are going to stop manufacturing plastic made baby bottles because of a chemical Bisphenol A (BPA) is widely used in plastics, the first thing that struck my mind was we all grew up feeding from that and will you be feeding your baby too ?
According to The National Toxicology Program, part of the National Institutes of Health, declares that “some concern” of BPA may affect the brain and behavioral development of fetuses, infants and young children. Heart disease, diabetes, breast cancer and liver abnormalities are also few of the diseases from BPA chemical.
following this Prince Lionheart promises to give a range of healthy feeding to the parents are producing silicone feeding products free from BPA as well as Phthalates, lead and PVC. Kelly Griffiths, President and CEO of Prince Lionheart certify these products to be “100% safe for babies”.

Reading that there is another noticeable habit in India the way we boil the bottles. Boiling baby bottles are always good but make sure you dont boil it too much or melt the plastic when it touches the edge. This is important because if that plastic bottle is already carrying something bad, burnt plastic is already known to cause issue. The best way to boil your baby bottle would be to steam it. Get a bottle steamer which can steam 4 to 6 of these bottles easily.
Here are my tips :
  • If you dont have a steamer, use a large vessel where bottle can float easily without touching the edge.
  • Check couple of time if the bottles have touched the edge. Many a times it happens that we start doing something else and forget this part.
  • And following that dont forget that you had bolid baby bottle in kitchen else you would have to get new one.
So do you boil baby bottles carefully ?



The Indian wedding trousseau has undergone a phenomenal change. Gone are the days when we used to receive a wedding invitation in the same old format printed on cards. Don’t get surprised if you get a wedding invitation engraved in a metal or silver sheet. To add-on the beauty it is also at times accompanied by the porcelain Ganesha or a figure of RadhaKrishna. Customisation and premier wedding services are becoming more lavish. Wedding preparations and the accompaniments are no longer same.
The bride and the groom can now be seen spending hours in the wedding markets and searching for the best and all in different for their special day. Customized silverware has always hit the top list in the Indian marriages. Silver has always symbolised aristocracy and so is always preferable in wide variety. Pair of diyas, photo frames, tea set, and flower vase to name few is always preferred one.
A silver platter engraving the wedding invitation and Ganesha with his little mouse has been recently seen as a special invitation for the immediate family. The next attraction “Dhan Potli”, a classy way for carrying valuable gift like engagement ring is very much in. Frazer and Haws is capturing the wedding market with this entire wedding trousseau.  To know more about Frazer & Haws and their collection, check their official site.
Silver fruit trays, 11 piece dinner set in pure silver, handcrafted single flower vase to name a few are being offered by the famous Deepak Hiranandani’s Karma Silverware. Not only in India but they are supplying designs to international brands like Carrs of Sheffield, M.C.Hersey & Son and David Redman Ltd from UK. People are no more opting for bed sheets or crockery or other gift items. They are actually out dated.  It’s silver in different shapes and ways hitting the list.
Elegant and hand beaded with pure Czech Swarovski crystals is also one of the latest launch by the UK brand last year. This handicraft knife is available in many colours and the prices are more on request. These are specially design for the wedding cakes and are a good wedding gift also. So Indian weddings are now also giving chance to the top brands to launch their exclusive wedding list of services thereby creating more competition. Treasure box is yet another attractive goodie that can be a memorable one.
UK based home furnishing brand Rosebys London is planning to launch in India their wedding list on the Linen collection with theme. They are planning to give a complete look with bedside lamps, flower vases and photo frames.
Champagne Bucket is all time favourite and a memento to celebrate the happiest day for the bride and the groom. The crystal champagne bucket is a different look that you can really go for. So what are you thinking of and waiting for. Make your choice and gift different from others and gift an exclusive gift to your wedding couple.
