Infantino baby sling RECALL

[MrsR]

Not sure where to put this. So I'm sorry if this is wrong place x Infantino baby slings are being recalled because of a danger of suffocation! I can't add a link as I have no idea how to. Experts are now saying that parents should use baby carriers that keep babies upright rather than lay down as new babies can't turn their heads if they get pressed against the parent or against the sling. There were 3 fatalities in the infantino case but there's worries that there are other slings that could cause this that aren't yet being recalled.

thanks for this, Ive been wondering. Is it this specific brand of baby slings of all of them are now 'unsafe'? I was really keen to get one and Im shocked at the news!

Hope the above link works-there's loads of info if you google Infantino baby sling recall, this is just where I got my info from x I first saw a poster about it in mothercare but I don't think they're making it very obvious x there's a couple of vids on you tube too I think x

Wow until reading that I had no idea any child had suffocated in a sling
