[quote=Anonymous]The only statement of caution in the instructions for the bottle type we're using (Dr. Brown's) is that microwaving may create hotspots in the liquid. At first, we were heating the bottles (for formula) indirectly, by placing into a vessel holding boiled water. Then we tried the microwave, and no surprise that it heats the fluid very quickly. For other plastic bottle users, do you also use the microwave? I have some worry that we used to do it perhaps the safer way, but I do hope that microwave heating (for formula only; for breast milk I have read that microwaving may break down proteins) is not causing any harm (either to the liquid itself or indirectly, by affecting the bottle integrity somehow).
