Blankets? When did you let your LO use one?

ATT&BTT · September 2011

I have yet to let Alivia sleep with a blanket. What age did you LO start? What type of blanket?

Over two. We actually transitioned her into her BGB without pillow or blankets. She was probably 26 months or so when she asked (for a pillow first, then a blanket).

L is 22 months and just started sleeping with a stuffed animal that he uses as a pillow.

I think around a year I did. Pillow too. In a vain attempt to get my kids to sleep.

Didn't help. But they do still sleep with blankets and pillows now. Ben keeps his on. Cooper doesn't. Sometimes he puts the pillow on top of himself like a blanket.

With M we did it when he moved to his big boy bed, at almost 3 years old. With W we gave him his cozy blanket at a year old, it's baby blanket sized.

I think just after 1 with both boys, just a baby size blanket.

I think around 11 months maybe?

It was in a desperate attempt to get her to sleep better, as she wakes up if her room gets cold at all.

At 2.5? We're trying to teach C but he mostly wants to sleep on top of them or play with them.

We let q have one around a year.

Around a year.

One year. He sleeps with a baby sized one that he absolutely loves.

Around seven or eight months, but he never was a head-puller-over. He doesn't like his head being covered, period. (Sad for me and my love of hats.) We added a pillow shortly before two, and he sleeps better with it.

Around 12/13 months. Same age that the lovie went into the crib.

The thought of your DS using the pillow like a blanket is too cute!

Blanket was around a year, pillow at 18 months. Now she sleep with a herd of animals, a big pillow and 2-3 blankets. She likes stuff.

I had to go move it last night when I went to bed in fact! I know it won't suffocate him but I still like it to not be on his head.

At one I gave him his little square lovey blanket. At 2.5 he still sleeps with a sleep sack, but that's because he moves all over the crib and won't keep a blanket on, plus it keeps him from putting his leg up over the crib bars. Big Smile

*Bloom2be* · September 2011

I think around 9-10 months. He has really become attached to it in the last month or so though. He also has loved our pillows for a while now so we just got him a toddler pillow last week and he loves it

Just before 2 with DD. It wasn't until she went into her new room with a big girl bed at 22 months that she used either a pillow or blanket. We used sleep sacks up til that point. ( she could climb in and out of her crib starting at 18 monthseven WITH a sleep sack on)

DS likes a pillow and blanket and has had both since last fall, so about 13 months.
