As many of you have almost certainly heard, the CPSC has issued a warning to parents and how they handle their newborns in their baby sling. |A little over a week ago, the CPSC released a warning for parents to use prudence while handling their newborns in child slings.

The commission warned parents to "be cautious when using infant slings for babies younger than four months of age." They also urged parents of small infants, twins, and infants in poor health to consult their pediatrician before using a sling with their infant. "We know of too many deaths in these slings and we now know the hazard scenarios for very small babies," said CPSC chair Inez Tenenbaum.

Several deaths involving child slings are being inspected from the past 20 years by the CPSC, including three in 2009. Twelve of the deaths involved babies younger than four months of age. Many of the babies who died in slings were either a low birth weight twin, were born prematurely, or had breathing issues.

Two particular hazards to your baby are implicit with infant slings. In the first few months of life, infants cannot control their heads because of their weak neck muscles. The baby sling carrier fabric can obstruct the infant's nose and mouth, interfering with the baby's breathing and resulting in accelerated suffocation. Additionally, when a sling keeps an infant in a curled position bending the chin toward the chest, the airways can be restricted, limiting the oxygen supply. Children have been known to suffocate this way as they are not able to cry for help. The CPSC always recommends that parents utilizing the baby sling make certain that they can see the infant's exposed face and be sure the baby's face is always visible. In short, please be careful before using your baby sling and read the directions!
