The popular baby product onlinepany, 4moms, has issued a massive recall after a 10-month-old dies. 😢

If you own a MamaRoo baby swing or a RockaRoo infant rocker, your product may be subject to a recall. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety onlinemission (CPSC) just announced that 4moms is recalling 2 million of their infant swings and rockers due to the death of an infant.

The 10-month-old died of asphyxiation after beonlineing caught in a strap of the MamaRoo swing. This is the second reported incident of entanglement involving the swing. The first incident involved a 10-month-old with bruising who was rescued by a caregiver after beonlineing tangled in the straps.

The CPSC has advised that the rockers and swings can be dangerous when not in use as the restraint straps can hang below the seat, posing entanglement and strangulation risks to crawling infants. So far, there have been no reported incidents related to the RockaRoo, but as the straps are similar, 4moms is taking preventative measures by recalling the rockers as well.
