WASHINGTON - The Consumer Product Safety Commission is urging parents to stop using My Baby Soother pacifiers due to a choking hazard.

The pacifiers failed to meet federal safety standards because the nipples can separate from the base easily, posing a choking hazard to infants and toddlers.

According to the CPSC, the distributor, T & L Trading Corp., has refused to recall the pacifiers.

They were sold around New York City from August 2007 through July 2009 costing about $1.

The Commission is urging parents to throw away the pacifiers.
