Product Details
Incident Overview
According to a consumer incident report filed on May 25, 2026, a 17-month-old girl has been using Millie Moon Diapers for approximately five to seven months. During this period, the child developed a severe, blister-like rash in both her vaginal and buttocks areas. The parent reported that these symptoms led to numerous doctor visits, required various medications, and resulted in significant health issues for their daughter, including scarring in the vaginal region, recurrent yeast infections, blisters, and bleeding.
The report lists multiple purchases of Millie Moon Diapers (Size 4 Regular, Size 4 Overnight, and Size 5 Regular) from various retailers over several months:

Safety Concerns
The reported incident raises serious safety concerns regarding Millie Moon Diapers and potential adverse reactions:
- Immediate Dangers: Severe skin irritation, painful blistering, open sores, and bleeding in sensitive areas. These can cause significant discomfort for infants and toddlers, leading to crying, difficulty sleeping, and general distress. The risk of secondary bacterial or fungal infections (like the reported yeast infections) is high when skin integrity is compromised.
- Long-Term Risks: Persistent irritation can lead to chronic skin conditions. The reported scarring in the vaginal region is a significant long-term consequence, potentially causing discomfort, sensitivity, or even functional issues later in life. Recurrent yeast infections can be difficult to manage and may indicate an ongoing irritant or sensitivity.
- Who Might Be Affected: Infants and toddlers who use Millie Moon Diapers are at risk, particularly those with sensitive skin, allergies to certain materials or chemicals, or compromised skin barriers. The wide range of purchase dates and sizes suggests a potential issue across different product lines or manufacturing batches.
- Property Damage Potential: This incident does not involve property damage.
What Consumers Should Do
If your child is currently using Millie Moon Diapers, or if you have concerns about similar symptoms:
- Immediate Steps to Take:
- Immediately discontinue the use of Millie Moon Diapers if your child develops any signs of rash, irritation, blistering, or bleeding.
- Seek prompt medical attention from a pediatrician or dermatologist for any severe or persistent skin issues.
- Keep any remaining affected diapers, packaging, and receipts as they may be important for further investigation.
- How to Check if They Own the Affected Product:
- Verify the brand “Millie Moon” on your diaper packaging. While the incident report lists a specific product ID (675088894), it’s advisable to exercise caution with all Millie Moon Diapers if your child shows similar symptoms.
- Prevention Measures:
- Always monitor your child’s skin closely for any signs of irritation or adverse reactions when trying a new diaper brand or even with a long-used brand if manufacturing changes occur.
- Ensure frequent diaper changes to maintain dryness, which can help prevent some forms of diaper rash.
- If your child has sensitive skin, consider consulting with your pediatrician about hypoallergenic or natural fiber diaper alternatives.
- Reporting Procedures:
- If your child has experienced a similar adverse reaction to Millie Moon Diapers or any other consumer product, report the incident to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) at www.SaferProducts.gov. Detailed reports are crucial for identifying patterns and initiating investigations.
