The recall is in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, and has been issued due to risk of entrapment and strangulation. The CPSC and Graco have received four reports of infant deaths due to strangulation that occurred in these strollers between 2003 and 2005. Additionally, the CPSC is aware of five reports of infant entrapment, resulting in cuts and bruises, as well as one report of an infant having difficulty breathing.
In January 2008, voluntary industry standard increased the height of the opening between the stroller’s tray and the seat bottom, specifically to prevent infant entrapment and strangulation hazards.
The recalled Graco Quattro Tour™ strollers and travel systems were manufactured prior to November 2006 and MetroLite™ strollers and travel systems manufactured prior to July 2007. The strollers and travel systems were distributed between November 2000 and December 2007. The model numbers are printed on a label at the lower portion of the rear frame, just above the rear wheels or underneath the stroller. The name “Graco” appears on a label on the stroller tray and the headrest. Models included in the recall are:

Hyland’s Teething Tablets: Recall - Risk of Harm to Children


[Posted 10/23/2010]
AUDIENCE: Consumers, Pediatrics
ISSUE: FDA notified consumers that Hyland’s Teething Tablets is being recalled because the tablets may pose a risk to children. The tablets are manufactured to contain a small amount of belladonna, a substance that can cause serious harm at larger doses. For such a product, it is important that the amount of belladonna be carefully controlled. FDA laboratory analysis has found that Hyland’s Teething Tablets contain inconsistent amounts of belladonna.
FDA has received reports of serious adverse events in children taking this product that are consistent with belladonna toxicity. The FDA has also received reports of children who consumed more tablets than recommended, because the containers do not have child resistant caps.
BACKGROUND: Hyland’s Teething Tablets is a homeopathic product, intended to provide temporary relief of teething symptoms in children. It is sold over-the-counter (OTC) in retail outlets. The FDA has not evaluated Hyland’s Teething Tablets for safety or efficacy, and is not aware of any proven clinical benefit offered by the product.
RECOMMENDATION: FDA recommends that consumers not use this product and dispose of any in their possession. FDA advises consumers to consult their health care professional if their child experiences symptoms such as seizures, difficulty breathing, lethargy, excessive sleepiness, muscle weakness, skin flushing, constipation, difficulty urinating, or agitation after using Hyland’s Teething Tablets.
Healthcare professionals and patients are encouraged to report adverse events or side effects related to the use of this product to the FDA's MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program:

• Complete and submit the report Online: www.fda.gov/MedWatch/report.htm
• Download form or call 1-800-332-1088 to request a reporting form, then complete and return to the address on the pre-addressed form, or submit by fax to 1-800-FDA-0178

I just saw this online and I am confused a little. It is just Hylander's or all teething tablets? They Little Teethers brand has belladonna in them too.

Bassettbaby Recalls to Repair Drop-Side Cribs Due to Entrapment, Suffocation and Fall Hazards
Hazard: The cribs' drop-side rail can malfunction, detach or otherwise fail, causing part of the drop side to detach from the crib. When a drop-side rail partially detaches, it creates a space between the drop-side and the crib mattress. An infant or toddler's body can become entrapped in the space, which can lead to strangulation and/or suffocation. A child also can fall out of the crib. Drop-side incidents also can occur due to incorrect assembly and age-related wear and tear.

There's a recall on BOB strollers with the yellow or orange drawstrings:

They recommend that you stop using the stroller immediately and go to the provided link for instructions on how to remove the drawstring--which in some instances can get wrapped around a child's neck. If you use a separately purchased sun or weather shield you can order a free retrofit kit.

Just got this sent to me last night- my carseat was one that was affected. Just want to make sure if anyone else has it they know.

A recall election (also called a recall referendum or representative recall) is a procedure by which voters can remove an elected official from office through a direct vote before his or her term has ended. Recalls, which are initiated when sufficient voters sign a petition, have a history dating back to the ancient Athenian democracy and is a feature of several contemporary constitutions.
