But ohhhh how wrong was I... Yesterday the CPSC announced a major recall to Graco brand cribs. EFFFF!!!! A co-worker of mine IM'd me yesterday while working from home in the late afternoon... coincidentally just after we had a discussion about 2 days ago, about recalls.
So he sent me a link to the report...as I read I started to panic...of course I read "babies could suffocate or strangle" & have myself a mild heart attack. I fly upstairs to find my crib receipt. No luck. So I get open my email...(thank god for my billion folders in my Yahoo! Mail)...open "Baby Kapri" folder and voila..."Thank You for your recent order"...BAM - there it is..."Graco - Sarah 4-in-1 Convertible Crib"...open CPSC website...cross-check...EFFFF my life, "Sarah" model is there...omgomgomgomg. I put my KID in this thing every day & night...holy crap!!
So it tells me that "Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact LaJobi to receive a free hardware retrofit kit that will immobilize the drop side." Great. Now I read that I need to find the "PO#" printed somewhere on the damn crib. I then spend a good 15-20 min inspecting every inch of this thing and find absolutely nothing. So I get back online...find email for "LaJobi" who manufactures these, and ask them where the heck I can find this PO# and what do I need to do to get the free hardware. In my opinion...I'm not so sure I even want the stinkin hardware...I may just ask for a new crib!!
***UPDATE*** I just got an email back from LaJobi, and here's a link to 'register' your crib by the model number, which you must do in order to receive your hardware kit. Damnit, I still need to figure out which model # ours is!!
In the meantime...don't worry about me...I'll just be stressing out every single time we put her in bed. UGH
OMG THAT'S AWFUL AND NOT OK!!!! YOU CALL THEM RIGHT NOW AND DEMAND A NEW ONE!
