On July 22, 2008, It’s My Binky recalled about 115,000 It’s My Binky’s Personalized Pacifiers because the button, ring handle and shield with nipple may detach, posing a choking hazard to infants. While the company has not received any reports of injuries, it has received two reports of the parts detaching.

Recalled It’s My Binky pacifiers have the word “Japlo” printed on the front of the shield. The recalled products were sold in blue, white and pink, and have various words or designs printed on the bottom of the pacifier.

Nordstrom and baby boutique retail stores nationwide, as well as itsmybinky.com, sold the recalled pacifiers from February 2006 through June 2008 for between $5 and $8.

Consumers are advised to immediately remove the pacifiers away from children and return them to the place of purchase, or to contact It’s My Binky at 888-689-9444 to receive a free replacement pacifier.

For more information, customers may also visit the company’s website, or email company representative Danielle Riiber.
