 According to a 2009 study from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, cribs and mattresses are the number one cause of infant deaths. The majority of these deaths were attributed to the presence of bedding in the crib, which led to asphyxiation. Docto  rs
and researchers have long identified soft bedding, such as traditional
crib bumper pads, as a health hazard and potential risk for suffocation
or strangulation of infants. The ties used to attach pads can tangle
around baby's neck and the soft and pillow-like fabrics can smother a
sleeping baby. However, cribs with exposed rails can also be dangerous
if a limbs get caught in between. The horizontal design of a conventional crib bumper does not provide a safe environment for infants and toddlers. In fact, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) strongly discourages the use of traditional bumper pads, and along with First Candle SIDS Alliance and Health Canada recommends removing traditional bumper pad as soon as a baby moves about the crib – usually at about 4 to 8 months of age. Wonder Bumpers are an ideal solution because: • Wonder Bumpers’ sleek, vertical padding, which tightly wraps around each crib rail, reflects the vertical design of a crib and enhances the safety features already built into it. • Wonder Bumpers protect babies’ heads and bodies and helps to inhibit toddlers from climbing out of the crib. • Increases air circulation into the crib. • They are reversible and easy to remove and clean, making them a functional and fashionable addition to any nursery. • They come in a variety of designs and colors and can be purchased at gomamagodesigns.com and specialty retailers nationwide. |
