Some Carter's Tagless Clothes May Cause Rash

I love Carter's baby clothes. There's a Carter's store not too far from us, and it's almost as fun shopping for my daughter's clothes there as it is going shopping for myself.

If you have any of the tagless clothing from their fall line last year, though, you may want to keep an eye out for this (note: per the article, this does not apply to their current lines). From Forbes:
"The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and children's-clothes maker Carters Inc. said Friday that some of its clothes with "tagless" labels have given children and infants a rash.

The tagless clothes are part of Carter's fall 2007 product line that uses a label on the inside back of the garment that has a raised surface and solid, rather than stenciled, background.

A small percentage of babies and infants have developed rashes on the upper back after wearing the clothing, the company and the government agency said."

Man, if it's not one thing, it's another. Now I'm going to go obsessively check my girls' clothes. :)
