If you notice, yesterday, news sprang up all over the web and print media in the US that the government is recalling about 1 million baby slings from the market! Reason being the bag slings by Infantino are linked to 3 infant death this year, and total of about 20 death cases in 20 years, due to accidents from using this type of sling.
Read here for the news on Yahoo!:
More than 1 million baby slings recalled
Now, we have received some enquiries via email questioning the safety of JumpSac slings – and are our slings the same as the ones being recalled?
First and foremost, kudos to you for taking the steps to enquire about the safety of baby slings.
Every concerned parents are cautious when purchasing a baby sling now due to the news – which is good in a sense that parents are now looking at other better and safe babywearing gear, and do not simply buy just any baby sling / carrier massively available out there.
The picture below shows the kind of baby sling that is being recalled. This type of sling is called ‘bag sling’ or ‘duffle bag-style sling’. The only position possible is probably the cradle carry.
With the bag slings being deep, wide and loose, baby often gets swallowed inside the sling, where there’s a huge possibility that the baby’s head could rotate to the sides of the bag sling, which could cause suffocation!
JumpSac Ring Slings on the other hand is of a different category of baby sling. take a look at the anatomy of ring sling, where being easily adjustable, baby can be worn upright, high secure and snug against the wearer’s body.
Even if you’d like to attempt the cradle carry in the ring sling, with the sling rails being adjustable, the baby’s head can be effectively sandwiched between the sides of the ring sling, preventing the infant from easily rotating his head into the sides of the carrier.
So, ring slings are definitely not bag slings.
Now you can be rest assured that JumpSac ring slings are not bag slings
For further explanation on the difference between bag sling and ring sling, please read this article:
Bag Slings vs Ring Sling. Are they the same?
If you happen to find any brick and mortar stores or online stores selling the bag slings, please inform them of the recall. The recall is not effective here in Malaysia yet, I think.
Please pass on this article & news to your friends especially to new babywearers, so they could make an informed decision when buying a baby sling. reading the news alone though might generalized all baby slings into the same category.
Lastly, it’s worth mentioning again (have mentioned this before
):
Know your sling and carriers well, and avoid the bag slings.
Wear your baby high up and secure, and never leave your baby unattended.
For correct positioning or instructions using JumpSac Baby Ring Sling and Carriers, please check out the Wearing Instructions.

Be an informed buyer.
Have a good day!
