2026-06-12 – A chemical hazard involving Millie Moon diapers has been reported to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) via the SaferProducts.gov database. The incident, involving a manufacturing defect, was submitted by a consumer whose child suffered severe skin reactions. The manufacturer, Zuru Inc., has been identified in the report. Product DetailsBrand Name: Millie Moon Incident OverviewAccording to a report filed with the CPSC on May 1, 2026, a consumer described a severe adverse reaction in their child after using Millie Moon size 4 diapers. The child, who had no prior history of diaper rashes, developed extreme blistering and peeling skin in the genital area. The parent also noted skin discoloration and loss of pigment, particularly concerning as the child is of mixed African American heritage. The consumer stated that the reaction began shortly after switching to the Millie Moon diapers and ceased once the product was discontinued. The consumer reported that the issue was not isolated to their child; discussions in a parent group revealed that many other children experienced similar reactions from the same product. The diapers were purchased from Walmart. The severity of the reaction required first aid administered by a non-medical professional, as classified by the CPSC. The consumer retained the packaging and reported the incident to the CPSC, providing a detailed account of the chemical hazard. Safety ConcernsImmediate Dangers: The reported chemical hazard caused severe skin irritation, including blistering and peeling of the skin in the genital area. Such reactions can lead to open wounds, increasing the risk of infection and requiring immediate first aid. Long-Term Risks: Repeated or prolonged exposure to the irritant could result in permanent skin discoloration or scarring. The reported loss of pigment (hypopigmentation) may be temporary or permanent, particularly in children with darker skin tones. Who Might Be Affected: Infants and toddlers using the affected diapers are the primary population at risk. Their sensitive skin is more susceptible to chemical irritants, and they cannot communicate discomfort early. Warning Signs: Redness, rash, blistering, peeling skin, or changes in skin color in the diaper area are warning signs of a chemical reaction. Parents should discontinue use immediately if any of these symptoms appear. What Our Clients SayWhat Consumers Should DoStop Using Immediately: Discontinue use of Millie Moon diapers from the affected batch (Item # 675088860) if your child develops any skin irritation.

First aid may be needed, and a doctor can document the injury for future reference. Preserve the Product: Keep the remaining diapers, packaging, and any receipts. These items may be important for investigating the defect or supporting a potential claim.
