Joined to help spread the word. Our daughter has been crying this week in obvious pain. Medical professionals found cuts on her bottom and said she'd probably been straining to poo. During a nappy change two nights ago we found shards of razor sharp metal embedded in the core of a new Pampers baby-dry size 4 nappy. The top sheet was unbroken.
No wonder our baby was in pain! We're appalled and still haven't heard back from Pampers, Asda or Trading Standards. How many other babies will be hurt like this and have to spend three hours in A&E?
Please double check your nappies before using. The pieces are small and buried deep in the nappy's core, so was easy to miss until one of the nappies happened to have a larger more visible shard than the others. Imagine that rubbing on baby's bum while s/he sits and wriggles around. We feel physically sick and don't want anyone else to experience the same thing.
We're trying to raise awareness and still haven't heard back from anyone except the local paper. We want no publicity, and no compensation. We just want answers and don't want this to happen to other babies. If this was faulty machinery at the factory who knows how many other nappies are peppered with hidden sharp metal?
Please do be vigilant, and I'd appreciate any shares of my public Facebook post to help highlight the dangers to other parents.
Thank you.
