Baby and Infant Product Recalls

Products made for babies and small children get recalled for reasons that would be less serious with adults. Infants can't reposition themselves away from a suffocation risk, toddlers put small parts in their mouths, and a foreign object in a food pouch is far more dangerous to someone who can't identify or spit it out. Regulators reflect that: nursery products, infant formula and children's items tend to be recalled quickly and with stronger warnings.

This page pulls together recalls of infant formula, baby food and pouches, cribs and bassinets, loungers, strollers, car seat accessories, teethers and children's toys from across FDA and CPSC data. If you have any of these items at home, check the model or lot codes against the notice — and stop using the product in the meantime rather than after you've confirmed it, since that's the safer order of operations with children involved.
