Teigan Campbell from Coventry in the West Midlands received the 'scare of her life' after she discovered that her daughter Poppy was caught in a cord from her cot's mobile.
Poppy, who is nine months old, was left with a visible mark where the cord had cut into her digit - and mother Teigan said she wouldn't have been surprised if she'd lost a finger.
Teigan has now warned other parents against placing toys above their child's cot - no matter how soothing they are for little ones.
