The Office for Product Safety and Standards has issued an Urgent Safety Alert for baby self-feeding pillows.
Baby self-feeding pillow products are designed to be attached to a bottle so that the baby may be positioned on its back to self-feed without the assistance of a caregiver holding the bottle and controlling the feed.
OPSS has identified that this category of products will always be dangerous due to their design and intended use and can never be made safe. When the product is used as intended, even whilst under the supervision of a caregiver, it could lead to immediate, serious harm or death from choking or aspiration pneumonia.

Anyone who has bought one should immediately stop using these products and dispose of them safely, meanwhile retailers must remove these products from the market as they cannot comply with the safety requirements under the General Product Safety Regulations, 2005.
