In this study, we report two infants who had skull fractures due to inappropriate use of baby slings. Although accidents related to baby slings are not serious, some of those lead to skull fractures as shown in our report. Since we encountered these two patients within 2 months, we decided to draw parents’ attention to inappropriate use and overestimating the safety of baby slings. Several organizations have already alerted parents on accidents related to baby slings; however, further awareness needs to be provided via social networking services and child health handbooks.
