There seem to always be new issues raised that lead to health concerns. On October 24, 2008 the Consumer Product Safety Commission sent out an advisory warning that they have received reports of rashes related to tagless "heat transferred" labels including brands such as Carter's. The raised label can irritate sensitive newborn and infant skin specifically. If you notice a rash related to tagless clothing, the CPSC advises to use the link - http://www.carters.com/corporate/tagless_message.aspx or visit the CPSC web site for additional information - http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml09/09023.html.
