    Q&A: Are Plastic Baby Bottles Safe? Are There Better Alternatives?

    Plastic has been the go-to material for baby bottles for decades, but recent concerns have raised questions about its safety. Although BPA was banned in baby bottles over a decade ago, similar chemicals like BPF and BPS are still used as replacements, and research on their long-term effects is ongoing. Additionally, the issue of microplastics in plastic bottles has become a growing concern, with studies suggesting that babies may be exposed to tiny plastic particles that could impact their development. In this episode, you'll learn practical tips to minimize risks associated with plastic baby bottles, from safe handling and cleaning practices to the importance of avoiding excessive heat. We’ll also discuss alternatives, including the pros and cons of glass, silicone, and stainless steel bottles. Whether you’re already using plastic bottles or exploring other options, this episode will empower you to make a well-informed choice for your baby’s health and safety.     Thank you to our sponsor   Try AG1 and get a FREE 1-year supply of immune-supporting Vitamin D AND 5 FREE AG1 travel packs with your first purchase.

    Q&A: Are 3D Ultrasounds Safe and Worth It?

    Ultrasounds have revolutionized prenatal care, and it is incredible that we have technology that allows us to see a baby inside the womb. Ultrasound technology began with 2D black-and-white pictures and has advanced to include 3D, 4D, and even 5D images and video. While prenatal care providers sometimes use 3D ultrasounds, most are elective ultrasounds for parents to see their baby and get keepsake images and videos. While this has become popular, the medical community has raised concerns about elective ultrasounds. Learn about 3D ultrasounds, the evidence on safety, potential risks, and tips for making an informed decision.   Thank you to our sponsor   Try AG1 and get a FREE 1-year supply of immune-supporting Vitamin D AND 5 FREE AG1 travel packs with your first purchase. That’s a $48 value for FREE!
