The Consumer Product Safety Commission reports dozens of infants deaths related to sleep and nursing pillows

Nursing pillows have long been used to help breastfeeding moms find a comfortable position while nursing their babies. The u-shaped pillows help prop the baby up, which can help them latch and also help support a mother’s arms, making the entire process easier. But the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPCS) reports dozens of infants have died after parents let them either sleep on or near the pillows.
