SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission has received 

correspondence from Boston Billows, 

Inc. requesting that the Commission 

amend 16 C.F.R. 1500.18(a)(16)(i), to 

permit the use of banned infant pillows, 

such as the Boston Billow Nursing 

Pillow (Boston Pillow), when the pillow 

is designed, intended and promoted for 

a mother’s use during breastfeeding and 

when such pillows are requested by a 

pediatrician or a board certified 

lactation consultant. 

Boston Billows asserts such an 

amendment is necessary given the 

current use of the Boston Pillow in 

hospitals and by lactation consultants. 

In addition, Boston Billows states that 

due to the physical configuration of the 

Boston Pillow, it is unlikely that an 

infant could fall asleep on it in a 

position that would compromise the 

infant’s ability to breathe. 

The request for an amendment to the 

ban on infant pillows is docketed as 

petition number HP 05–1 under the 

Federal Hazardous Substances Act, 15 

U.S.C. 1261–1278. 

Interested parties may obtain a copy 

of the petition by writing or calling the 

Office of the Secretary, Consumer 

Product Safety Commission, 

Washington, DC 20207; telephone (301) 

504–0800. The petition is available on 

the CPSC Web site at www.cpsc.gov.

Commission.
