Just a vent...

Is anyone else annoyed that bottles are called "nursers"?  I never really noticed before, but saw this in a sale paper this weekend and it just bugged me.  So next time I was out shopping I looked in the bottle area, and they are pretty much all called "nurser."  What's the deal?   Do they think they're fooling anyone?  Even the babies know it's not the real thing!

I've never seen that!  I wonder if it's only in the States...

(But it would bug me too!)

From what I thought it was a certain type- like with plastic liners- supposed to be used for ebm?  I noticed 2 types at the store- some say bottles, some say nursers.

I think I see a lot of ads because I watch TLC's "A Baby Story" too much.  :oops:  Every other commercial is for bottles or formula. And they always say "breast is best, but..." Grrrr, but we've been there before so I won't go there again.

Actually, on a better note, I have been bottlefeeding my day care baby. He takes the Munchkin bottles that have the adjustable flow nipples, and I am impressed with those bottles. They really look like a human nipple more than most. He nurses most the time. So next time, maybe I'll try that!
