Sleep positioners?

CheyenneShawCheyenneShaw
in 3rd Trimester

So apparently sleep positioners are now dangerous. Which I guess I can see where they could be.https://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm227575.htm

And J&J baby shampoo is dangerous also due to the ingredients that they use that the FDA had previously banned.https://www.topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/lawsuit-news/617-johnson-a-johnson-and-walmart-sued-for-selling-toxic-baby-shampoo

 

Anyways, I registered for both of these items, and both have been purchased. I know I will thank whoever buys the baby shampoo like i would any other gift and just take it back later, but im on the fence about the sleep positioner? Will you still be using one?

    We were told not to use them (sleep positioners) last week at our childbirth class. Dh got rid of ours as soon as we got home.We have some of the J+J shampoo. We won't use it just to be safe but I am interested to see what comes of the study on the shampoo. I think we are going to go with Aveeno instead.

    negative on the sleep positioner - most newborns sleep pretty still, and once they are rolling, etc it's better not to have anything in the crib.

    as for the shampoo... on the fence. I always used it as a kid, and other than the 3rd eye on my forehead, I'm pretty normal.

    In regards to the J&J, our childbirth class instructor had told us their products were awful.  She recommended this website to review which products are safe.  Then you can make your own decision.  We have decided to go with California Baby products.

    Not going to use the positioner, but have been wondering about a wedge.  Does anyone know if wedges are recommended, they go below the sheets.

    No on the sleep positioner.  They are a risk and why give your kid one more crutch to sleep?

    No to J&J.  And, don't think that Aveeno is any beter just because they seem to be more natural.  They're made by the same company and (generally) contain the same crap.
