Safety & Use Disclaimer

Overview  

At TushPro, safety is our highest priority. Our products are designed for comfort and support; however, they must be used responsibly and in accordance with pediatric, medical, and federal safety guidelines. This page outlines important safety information for parents, caregivers, and customers to ensure proper and appropriate use.

 **Infant & Toddler Safety (0–3 Years)**  

**Our products are not intended for infant or toddler sleep.**  

Wedge cushions, sleep positioners, and inclined surfaces should **never** be used for babies or toddlers during sleep. This aligns with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), which advise:

- Infants must sleep on a **flat, firm surface**  

- No pillows, wedges, or sleep positioners  

- No inclined sleepers or products that elevate a baby’s head or torso  

- No soft or padded sleep accessories  

These guidelines are in place to reduce the risk of suffocation, airway obstruction, and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

**TushPro does not market or sell any sleep products for infants or toddlers.**

---

## **Young Children (4–5 Years)**  

Wedge cushions are **not recommended for overnight sleep** in children under age 6.  

Children in this age range may still slide, roll, or reposition in ways that compromise airway safety. Any use should be:

- Short‑term  

- Supervised  

- For comfort only (e.g., reading, resting, congestion relief)  

- On a firm, flat surface  

Wedges should not be used as part of a child’s nightly sleep routine unless directed by a licensed healthcare provider.

---

## **Older Children (6–8+ Years)**  

Children ages **6–8 and older** may generally use wedge cushions safely **when used properly** and **when the child can reposition themselves independently**.

For this age group:

- Use only on a **flat, firm mattress**  

- Ensure the child can move freely and adjust their position  

- Avoid steep inclines  

- Follow all product instructions  

- Discontinue use if discomfort or breathing difficulty occurs  

Wedge cushions should not replace safe‑sleep practices recommended by pediatric professionals.

---

## **Adults**  

Wedge cushions are widely used by adults for comfort, posture support, and relief from conditions such as reflux, snoring, or congestion. Adults can safely use wedge cushions because they can reposition themselves and maintain airway control.

Always follow product instructions and consult a healthcare provider if you have medical concerns.
