I'm free! I'm finally freeeeeee! (plus product rave)

I remember this woman I babysat for in the 1990's had handles on the baby bottle so the baby could learn to hold the bottle... well, it turns out Born Free used to make them! I found them new on overstock.com and they worked wonders for the girls! They held their bottles up as long as they reclined in their chairs, and I had free hands once in awhile Chat Icon After 3 weeks, guess whaaaaaaatttttt?!?!?! They hold their own bottles! No more handles, nothing! I feel like I won the jackpot! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
And I'm proud of them, of course. Chat Icon
But I'm free! I can start cleaning up earlier, I can talk on the phone etc etc etc!!!

so excited and nerdy I know...

HAHA YAYYY!!! I know, the bottle thing is tough. I had no idea until I had twins how much time I would spend sitting holding a bottle. I felt like I could not go anywhere or get anything done. Not an issue with my single.

Thankfully I found the podee...best invention EVER!! I can get both babies fed at same time AND get out of the house without worrying about a meltdown.

Of course, I always hold them to feed if I can, but this really has been a great mommies helper, if anyone is interested, link below.

I am so jealous! My twins (8 months) still refuse to hold their own bottles! Do you think those handles would work on other bottles? I have Dr. Brown bottles but not sure I want to buy a whole set of new Born Free bottles just so the handles fit! How are you by the way Michelle? :)
