A great and safe option to stay close to your baby while they sleep is to place their crib in your room for the first 6 months. It is easy to check on baby, feed them, and return them back to a safe sleep environment! Room sharing is safer than bed sharing!

Recall Alert: The baby loungers violate the mandatory standard for Infant Sleep Products because the sides are shorter than the minimum side height limit to secure the infant; the sleeping pad’s thickness exceeds the maximum limit, posing a suffocation hazard; and an infant could fall out of an enclosed opening at the foot of the lounger or become entrapped.

Consumers should stop using the baby loungers immediately and contact Pomona for a full refund. Consumers should remove the sleeping pad, cut up the sides of the baby loungers and the sleeping pad and email a photo of the destroyed lounger to urmyworecall@yundnetwork.com to obtain a full refund.

https://firstcandle.org/first-candles-safe-sleep-and-bereavement-webinar-series/

Join First Candle for a special webinar series bringing together medical experts, doulas, public health leaders, and families.

This is a three-part event this fall for NICU Awareness Month, Baby Safety Month, Safe Sleep Awareness Month, and Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Day.

Each session explores a different stage of the journey — from NICU to home, to building safe sleep practices in the community, to healing after the loss of a baby.
