Infant Death Prompts Recall of Ring Slings Made by Sprout Stuff Due to Suffocation Risk
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
Slings can pose two different types of suffocation hazards to babies. In the first few months of life, babies cannot control their heads because of weak neck muscles. The sling's fabric can press against an infant's nose and mouth, blocking the baby's breathing. Additionally, where a sling keeps the infant in a curled position bending the chin toward the chest, the airways can be restricted, limiting the oxygen supply. The baby will not be able to cry for help and can slowly suffocate.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled slings and contact Sprout Stuff to return the sling for a full refund.
