Does your 2 year old sleep with a pillow?

I guess I should clarify that Nicky is still in a crib.  I plan on waiting a bit longer before transitioning him to a toddler bed since he shows no signs of escaping the crib and I feel that is the safest place for him to sleep.

I haven't put a pillow in his crib because whenever he sleeps in bed with us, he scooches himself down off the pillow and sleeps with his head on the mattress, so I don't think he likes sleeping on a pillow.

But then sometimes I feel bad when I put him in the crib and see him just laying on the mattress.  I dodesn't look comfortable to me. I guess this is my long-winded way of asking whether I should put a pillow in his crib?

    Cedric sleeps with a pillow and a comforter, but we only gave him those once we moved him to the bed and out of the crib.  He took right to them.

    L sleeps with a pillow, too, but like Tania, he sleeps in a toddler bed. I "think" though that we put the pillow in when he was still in the crib. He took right to it. The flat sheets, now those are a different story! We'll see whta happens in winter...

    Aaron is also in a bed (but uses the floor more often then not) he has a pillow and he uses that more to throw. But I like that he has the option. I know how you feel though....a crib with no pillow looks so uncomfy

    We have a pillow in Sophia's crib. She uses it and loves it. Its much more cozy. We started using it months ago when she had a bad cold and it stayed.

    Side note, tho, she started showing interest in half climbing out of her crib this weekend. I have been able to avert her the two times I have seen her but this lets me know her days in her crib are numbered.

    Mario sleeps with a pillow and a comforter, but we only gave him those once we moved him to the bed and out of the crib.? He took right to them. but then again mario was in a toddler bed by 18 months. good luck...maybe a character pillowcase might help him want it more...

    My MIL made Mikey this cute little pillow with pillowcases and all and I have that in his crib and he hasn't used it once. He thought it was fun and cute the first time but as soon as he fell asleep he was off of the pillow and never used it again. I still put it in his crib but he could care less to use a pillow.
