This is kind of a random post. I am due in November and have had two reactions to latex in the past three years. Both times resulted in a rash and swelling. I am not so sensitive that I have to avoid elastic or anything like that. My concern is with the baby. I am unable to breastfeed and will be using formula. I know the bottles they give you in the hospital have latex nipples. Should I bring my own bottles? Are there other things at the hopital I should be concerned with?
