The Boppy Co., the maker of an array of infant carriers and nursing pillows, is recalling nearly 3.3 million of their newborn loungers, which have been linked to the death of eight babies.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product and Safety Commission, the recalled products include Boppy Original Newborn Loungers, Boppy Preferred Newborn Loungers and Pottery Barn Kids Boppy Newborn Loungers.
The infants reportedly suffocated after being placed in a lounger on either their back, side or stomach. The eight deaths were reported between December 2015 and June 2020, according to the CPSC.
"We are devastated to hear of these tragedies," a spokesperson for Boppy said in the recall issued by the CPSC.
