Want answers to Carters baby clothing rashes, well here you go. Carters baby clothes are causing babies to develop rashes. The clothes which have no tags sewed into them have caused rashes in at least four hundred babies. The rashes have occurred on the babies backs. This prompted a warning to be issued regarding these pieces of clothing
The warning has been issued for baby knit body suits, pajamas, and shirts. The clothes that are causing the baby rashes are from the fall 2007 clothing line. Many people have theorized that the babies are contracting contact dermatitis from the ink that is on the iron on labels that are ironed on to the pieces of baby clothing. The label that is causing the contact dermatitis has a raised surface with a solid background. This warning affects approximately one hundred and ten million pieces of baby clothing.
Many people do not think about the clothing that they purchase for their infants and children. Carters is a very popular brand of infants clothing. Many children could have contracted rashes if this problem was not brought to parents’ and consumers’ attention.In today’s economy many products have been recalled or have defects that go undiscovered for a while. We need to better regulate the clothing products that are purchased for children. There needs to be further research done to see if other inks and dyes used in baby and children’s clothing can also causes rashes.
Carters baby clothing has not been recalled. There has only been a warning issued about the possibility that your child may develop a rash if they wear the affected products. If your child does develop a rash, then you should go to a doctor to have it treated and discontinue allowing your child to wear those articles of baby clothing.
If you are a parent who has a child with skin issues you should consider buying organic clothing for your children. Organic clothing does not use harsh dyes and are very natural pieces of clothing. This type of clothing is more expensive than regular clothing but it will help to prevent your children from getting rashes from contact dermatitis and irritated skin.
Hopefully, there will be no further issues involving Carters baby clothing or any other clothing brand. We need our children to be comfortable when they wear their clothes. They shouldn’t develop a rash from just wearing a piece of clothing. We need to protect our children; they are our most precious resource.
