You might think baby swings are a great way to soothe fussy little ones. But, here's a shocker: Health Canada just recalled Fisher-Price's "Snuga Swings" due to a scary suffocation risk. Imagine this, five babies died internationally while using these swings intended for sleep. It's not just one model either; we're talking about twelve different swings, like the "Sweet Snugapuppy Swing" and "Moonlight Meadows Swing". So, what's the big deal? When used for sleep, the headrest and body support can trap a baby, making it hard to breathe. Yikes!
These swings were sold from 2012 to 2020, with nearly 100,000 in Canada alone. If you've got one, stop using it immediately, remove the headrest and support, and call Mattel for a refund. Remember, safety first, folks!
Health Canada wants you to report any issues with these swings or other products by filling out their form. You can also call Mattel for more info. It's all about keeping our little ones safe!
