My Old-Fashioned Love for Glass Bottles

03/12/2025

Back when my grandmother was a maternity nurse manager, glass baby bottles were the go-to for new moms. They were trusted for their durability, safety, and ease of use. Even today, glass bottles remain a superior option compared to plastic.

Surprisingly, one of the biggest advantages of glass bottles is their durability. These bottles are stronger than you think! Think about it this way: plastic can get worn down over time, compromising quality. On the other hand, glass bottles can be used repeatedly while remaining in their original condition.

The safety of glass is also an appealing aspect of these bottles. While plastic bottles have come a long way and many are now BPA free, they can still contain potentially harmful chemicals. Because glass bottles are so easy to clean, you don't have to worry about any lingering flavors or odors—another great benefit!

So, why not switch to glass? Many brands now offer a glass version of their bottles and I am all for them! Go glass!
