Wow, I had asked a question months ago about what age was good to give a child a pillow and most people said at 1 year of age...
Thanks for telling me the right answer.

No pillow is good. Babies do not need pillows until about age 2 - 3 or just wait until he/ she asks for it. My soon to be 18 month old still doesn't sleep with a pillow and has no problem sleeping. Do not give your child a pillow especially if he/ she is under one! There is still a risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) and pillows INCREASE the risk. Don't be a statistic.

If your baby wants a pillow then you should put a small, flat pillow on the matress under the flat sheet or place it under the matress to give the bed an angle. Pillows are risky until age 2. Be careful. Good Luck!

Experts say it's not good to give them a pillow at that young of age. I still tried with my firstborn. He couldn't have cared less. It just laid in there while he was all over the crib.

no pillow. Or firm. Be careful of pillows. I think you already know the implications involved. Think about it.

The travel pillows. My twins love them and they are the perfect size for their little heads.

A pillow that is breathable and smaller than an adult pillow.
