[blparent] making bottles

[Star Gazer]

				Judy is right. You don't have to use J.E.'s
approach, but measuring cups are really easy to come by. Is there a reason
you aren't willing to get some?
J.E. is right, a lot of men don't want to get up close and personal with the
diaper area. If you don't, that's fine, just be honest about it. The diaper
phase is a blink of an eye, and I'd bet there are many dads who didn't
change a diaper. Just make sure you are present in other ways and that it
works for your family. My husband has never given our girls a bath. I'm fine
with this. I'm happy to do it, I'm home with them and our approach works for
us. It would drive many women nuts. All that matters is that you do what
works for all involved.

A good set of measuring cups can be had from any department store in the
kitchen section.  In my kitchen, over the years, I have collected 3 or 4
sets, very easy to come by.

I could, but don't have the necessary equipment. Can you recommend good
tactile measuring cups? As for funles, that is a good idea; I'll go get some
from the store and see how that works out.
