In response, Amazon, Target and Walmart <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2024\/05\/02\/1248194639\/weighted-infant-sleepwear-amazon-target-safety\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pulled this sleepwear<\/a> from their sites and shelves. A senator has called for investigation into Dreamland Baby and Nested Bean, two of the popular weighted infant sleepwear companies based on allegations that they\u2019ve used deceptive marketing in connection with product safety. It\u2019s terrifying to discover your baby has been injured by a product you believed was safe. If your baby was injured by weighted infant sleepwear, call trustworthy Chicago-based product liability lawyers Moll Law Group.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consult Moll Law Group About Weighted Infant Sleepwear Claims<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Experts and regulators concerned about the weighted sleepwear believe that it could prevent babies from breathing and pumping blood, and that the sleepwear could harm a baby as he or she is developing. Additionally, they think that the sleepwear is heavy enough that it could stop an infant from waking themselves up in case they aren\u2019t able to breathe. This group thinks the product needs rigorous safety testing prior to being made available on the market.<\/p>\n<p>However, the manufacturers\u2019 CEOs have stated that their products are safe and that there\u2019s no evidence to the contrary; investigators are concerned that there\u2019s no evidence of safety either. The marketing for these products has focused on their comforting and soothing effects on newborns. Nested Bean has sold more than 2.5 million units of sleepwear products. The Dreamland Baby product has been out for more than 10 years, and more than 1 million weighted units have been sold.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.molllawgroup.com\/blog\/amazon-target-and-other-retailers-stop-selling-weighted-infant-sleepwear\/#more-3276\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Public concern is growing that weighted infant sleepwear, including sleep sacks and swaddles, may be dangerous for babies, after warnings from medical experts, safe-sleep advocates and federal regulators.
