Playtex Drop Ins

Anyone out there use playtex drop ins? How do you feel about them? I am considering trying them for baby #2 thinking that it will be less cleaning of bottles (hubby is not much help!). I will likely use a few different brands of bottles (like dr browns and avent in past.) If you have used them, can you mix the formula and water in the pouch itself or do you have to premix the formula then put it in the pouch? Just curious, thanks!

Worried My Bottle-refusing Daughter's Health Will suffer...help!

I have an MRI this week and I cannot nurse my 5 month old for 48 hours because of some chemical agent that can get into my breastmilk. I have been exclusively breastfeeding her, she went on bottle strike at 7 weeks and since then we had no luck with getting her consistently on the bottle (we saw LCs, tried every bottle on the market, tried doing it when I wasn't home, etc.) and nothing worked. She has occasionally started to take 2oz at a bottle feeding, but that's about it-then she throws a fit and I end up nursing her. All of this is fine...
