WARNING
This is not intended to scare anyone but just to stay vigilent. A couple of weeks ago me and hubby bought some clothes for Alfie from Mothercare. I washed them and put them away until he could fit into them. He put some weight on so out they came!
I dressed him in a pair of jeans and thought nothing of it. I came to sit at the computer (prob to come on this forum!) and something sharp pierced into my hand.
In Alfies jeans was a 3/4 inch pin sticking out. OMG i was lucky (and so was Alfie) that it wasnt sticking inwards as it could have caused some serious harm. :x
Since then i have emailed mothercare to make them aware that this has happened. In their response they have assured me that they have made the staff at that particular store to be more aware.
I know that this was an accident but that pin could have gone straight through Alfies leg and i do not want this to happen to anyone elses child.
I am forever checking his clothes now.
Im probably over reacting so just a message for all you mums to be aware.

The thing that concerns me is that mothercare specialize in baby equipment and clothes.
I just dread to think to what could have happened.
Maybe you could email them too to make them aware that this is a serious ongoing problem?
