New Teething Rings without BPA Look Like the Old Kind

My daughter's favorite teethers are the plastic, water filled ones that you put in the refrigerator. Even now that she's not teething, she still likes to play with them and chew on them. I've even started as using them as a distraction toy when I'm feeding her because they are so easy to clean and they are such great distractions. But up until now I haven't found BPA free ones that look like this.

The new Natursutten Apple and Fish Teethers from Giggle are made without phthalates or chemical softeners. These even have the tiny bumps to sooth sore gums. They're just like the old kind but without the all the bad stuff. Hopefully, one day, we won't have to worry about our baby products but for now at least we have choices! ($12.00 each.)

Baby Basics: Natursutten Pacifier

I've heard horror stories of people buying multiple pacifiers only to have their baby spit it right back out (if the pacifier even got that far). We got lucky with our first pacifier set (a gift from a lovely aunt), which also happens to be non-plastic--thus BPA free--and organic. Its unique shape also doesn't leave that nasty pacifier mark on baby's face (and what parent isn't vain like that).

The Natursutten Pacifier ($8), which we've blogged about on Droolicious before, is made from all-natural rubber and is one continuous piece. In Danish, the name roughly means "natural pacifier," but in our house, it specifically translates into one happy baby. If you're searching for a non-plastic pacifier or just one your baby will tolerate, I highly recommend this one.

Check out other baby basics that really worked for me and my new baby.
