What is Baby Bottle Boomerang?
First Care’s Baby Bottle Boomerang (BBB) is a unique event allowing us to partner with local churches, schools, and organizations. We provide the bottles to hand out. Supporters fill the bottles with cash, coins, and/or a check. Once the bottles are filled, they can then be “boomeranged” back to First Care.
How do you know if a bottle is right for your baby?
A good rule of thumb is to make sure your bottle of choice is BPA-free. Bottle shapes are generally standard (tall and straight), angled (bent at the neck), and wide (designed to hold wide, short nipples that mimic a breast). Bottles come in small (4 oz) or large (8 oz).
Is it OK to use different bottles for baby?
You can generally find baby bottles in smaller sizes (about 4-5 ounces) and larger sizes (about 8-10 ounces). Newborns take in only a couple of ounces at a time, but babies ramp up their eating quickly, so going straight for the bigger bottles could save you money in the long run.
