Silicone nipples are the sturdier of the two. They also clean more easily and don't retain odors. But your baby won't find them as soft in her mouth as a latex nipple. Latex is more flexible, but because it's softer, your baby will probably wear it out faster. You'll want to avoid latex if you have any reason to think your baby might have a latex allergy.
The Continental Congress. In 1774, the British Parliament passed a series of laws collectively known as the Intolerable Acts, with the intent to suppress unrest in colonial Boston by closing the port and placing it under martial law. In response, colonial protestors led by a group called the Sons of Liberty issued a call for a boycott.
The Intolerable Acts, also known as the Coercive Acts, were a series of laws passed by the British to punish colonies that were openly rebelling. They were triggered by the Boston Tea Party of 1773. Instead of regaining control, the laws only caused more revolt. The situation escalated into the Revolutionary War.
