A baby sleeper or rocking sleeper is a staple in many homes that have babies. These devices help babies fall asleep, while being portable and easy to set up. Sadly, infant injury and death has been a long standing problem with baby sleepers from various manufacturers. In recent years, companies like Fisher-Price and Kid II have recalled all their baby sleepers because they pose a risk of infant fatality.<\/p>\n

Most people are surprised to learn that around 4,000 babies die every year because of their sleeping environment, and that includes portable bassinets that with a rocking motion, i.e., a baby sleeper. Are you a parent whose infant died while they were on a baby sleeper? If so, you may have grounds to file a lawsuit against the manufacturer for breaching<\/a> their duty of care to the consumer. If defects with the sleeper caused your baby\u2019s death, you can seek compensation and hold the company accountable by filing a wrongful death claim.<\/p>\n

The Connection Between Baby Sleepers and Infant Deaths<\/span>\n

Baby sleepers have a long and disturbing history of causing infant deaths, but the issue went unnoticed by the general public for many years. Recently, multiple brands and models of baby sleepers were recalled, and there is no way to deny that many innocent babies were lost because of defects with the product. <\/p>\n

For example, let\u2019s take a look at the recalls that were issued<\/a> by Kid II and Fisher-Price. The recalls are based on infants<\/a> rolling onto their stomachs and suffocating, thereby dying within a few minutes. This is why you should only use a firm mattress in a crib, which keeps the baby\u2019s face from sinking into the surface and stopping them from breathing. Bassinets and other items that are specifically designed for infant sleep must meet critical safety standards, and Fisher-Price and Kid II have clearly failed in that regard. <\/p>\n

As of April 2019, when the recall was first announced by Fisher-Price, around 30 babies had died in one of their sleepers after rolling onto their back or side and suffocating. The heartache and anguish for the family is unimaginable, especially when you know that the accident could have been prevented. <\/p>\nDo You Have the Right to Sue?<\/span>\n

<\/a>At the end of the day, you have the right to expect that your child will be safe when placed in a baby sleeper for a nap. So, if your baby died after being placed in a baby sleeper, can you sue the manufacturer for negligence? You have the right to seek wrongful death compensation in cases where a defect with the product made it unsafe when used as intended. A defect may refer to a mechanical<\/a> error, design flaw, low-grade materials, lack of safety warnings, unclear directions, and other circumstances that indicate a breach of duty by the product maker or distributor. <\/p>\n

Our attorneys can determine if your case meets the requirements for a wrongful death lawsuit and initiate a claim against Fisher-Price, Kid II or any other baby product manufacturer.
