    The product, in the report: Baby Bjorn Carrier

    While playing mini-golf my 7 month old son was being worn in a Baby Bjorn Original carrier. When the wearer bent over to pick up a ball, the baby’s leg was pinned near the wearer’s waist and broke as a result. We went to the Emergency Room where the infant was x-rayed and placed in a hard cast/splint. A follow-up visit to a Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon resulted in the child being put in a Pavlik Harness for approximately 3-6 weeks.
