“Winnie the Pooh” baby bassinet RECALL

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a warning about the bassinets after another child strangled to death in September 2007. The lawsuit alleges that Wal-Mart did not recall the bassinets until a year later, on August 27, 2008.

Simplicity, Inc., formerly of Reading, Pennsylvania, had all of their assets sold at public auction to SFCA, Inc. in April 2008. After SFCA, Inc. failed to cooperate with the CPSC, the federal safety regulators issued a statement on their own in August 2008, urging parents to stop using the bassinets. Shortly thereafter, several major retailers, including Wal-Mart, Target, J.C. Penny, Kmart, Toys “R” Us and Big Lots!, agreed to issue a Simplicity bassinet recall and offer refunds or store credits to consumers who purchased the product at their store.

Since Simplicity ceased operations, the CPSC has continued to issue recalls for unsafe baby products the company manufactured, including more than 900,000 bassinets in August 2008, 600,000 Simplicity drop side cribs in September 2008 and 200,000 portable play yards recalled in January 2009.

I hope this information will be helpful. Parents if you still have "WINNIE THE POOH" baby bassinet please stop to use it, it is really dangerous for infants.

What is Sudden Infant Death Syndrome?

Sudden infant death syndrome (or SIDS) occurs when a baby under 12 months old dies suddenly for no apparent reason. When doctors investigate the death (do an autopsy), they can't find anything that might have been the cause.

Sudden infant death syndrome happens without any warning when the baby is thought to be sleeping. It can occur when the baby is in a crib. But babies can also die when they're sleeping somewhere else, such as in a stroller or their parent's arms.

RISK FACTORS FOR SIDS:

  • They are placed to sleep on their front (this is the most important factor)
  • Their mother or another family member smokes.
Risk factors make SIDS more likely. But it's important to realize that having a risk factor doesn't mean SIDS will happen. We know only that babies who die of SIDS are more likely to have been exposed to these risks.

Avoiding these risk factors can help make SIDS less likely.
Co-sleeping with your newborn or baby may put you in more control over infant's sleep.
Co-sleeping is recommended for a number of benefits and reducing SIDS IS ONE OF THEM.
You can use a baby bassinet or typical c0-sleeper and move around the house, and that makes co-sleeping easier.

4 Ground Rules For a Good Night's Sleep in a Baby Bassinet


I read lately an article about healthy sleep habits and want to share with you.
Parents know, that we need to put some effort to create healthy sleep habits from beginning, right after our baby is born. We also know, that it is not easy, sometimes we rely on other parents experiences.
According to experts: no matter what is keeping child awake or rousing her from slumberland, there are a few things every parent should do to ensure healthy sleep habits.
1. Always put your baby down awake. Don't put your baby down when asleep, don't make it a routine, children should fall asleep independently.
2. Fallow a set routine. Having a consistent environment will help them develop ability to settle down to sleep.
3. Make sure she is getting enough shut-eye. Children who are not getting enough sleep will be thrown way off schedule by even the most minor of disruptions.
4. Watch for the signs of sleepiness. Fallow child's sleep cycle. Anticipate your baby's needs: if he's slowing down, rubbing his eyes, yawning, or sucking his thumb, consider it time to go to sleep.
It is also very important to provide a safe, secure bed for your child. For newborns best bed would be a baby bassinet, where infant will feel safe and secure, because it's small, cozy, and not as airy as a conventional baby crib.
Nice crib alternative for newborns are co-sleepers, with possibility to move around the house for your convenience.
