Re: bpa questions
I am reading mixed reviews on '5' online...
SOO confusing....I guess i am going to throw away all her sippy cups...but I am wondering about all the tupperware I have with 5's on it. I never heat anything up in them but they do go in the dishwasher...

Re: bpa questions
"Inside the little triangle, you'll see a number, from one to seven. Bottled water is packaged in No. 1. Experts told the Today Show, the numbers 3, 6 and 7 pose the most danger, including cancer risks. Still, a federal panel of experts has some concern that even low levels cause neural and behavioral effects in children and fetuses. All plastics can degrade, especially with harsh treatment, like dishwashing or microwaving-- so you may not want to reuse anything, to the point that it's getting shabby. "

Re: bpa questions
I can't find that triangle ANYWHERE on any of nuby sippy cups or doc browns.
Anyone know what plastic is used for them?

Re: bpa questions
I could have sworn doc browns were a 7 also. I thought they said only drop ins, born free and one other were truly BPA free.

Thank you so much for posting that website, i couldn't find info on Nuby anywhere. I just emailed the company too.
Thank god the 2 kinds of sippys we use here don't have BPA in them.
