Be cautious when you use hand me down baby products. Be sure that you have the owner’s manual/directions and that you have all the parts. Check products for recalls at http://www.cpsc.gov/cgi-bin/firm.aspx .
Earlier this month, a co-sleeper that was sold between Sept 1997 and Dec 20001 was recalled due to a risk of suffocation http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml11/11187.html?tab=recalls . Yes, even after all these years! Cribs are no longer being made with drop sides because children were getting caught between the mattress and the drop-side rail. Car seats now have expiration dates. Look for it on a sticker on embossed in the plastic somewhere on the car seat!
Be an educated consumer and put child safety first!
