The CPSC and Boppy have recalled the Boppy Original Newborn Loungers, Boppy Preferred Newborn Loungers and Pottery Barn Kids Boppy Newborn Loungers.  Infants may roll on these loungers or off the loungers into a position that cuts off their breathing and creates a suffocation hazard.  Eight infants have already died in association with the use of this product.  About 3.3 million of these Boppy loungers were sold nationwide at Pottery Barn Kids, Target, Walmart and other children’s stores and general merchandise stores as well as online at amazon.com.  Immediately stop the use of these loungers and contact the Boppy Co. by phone at 1-800-416-1355 or online at poppy.com to obtain a refund.  As an FYI, infants should alway sleep on a firm, flat surface in a crib, bassinet, or play enclosure on their backs without any blankets, pillows, or padded crib bumpers within their reach.
