Pillow in crib or toddler bed

Do you use a pillow in LO's crib or toddler bed?


If so, how was was LO when you started? 

Re: Pillow in crib or toddler bed

  • DD had a pillow in her crib at 15 ish months. DS does not yet have one. No reason why not.

  • DD moved out of her crib at 18 months, so we gave her a pillow in her "big girl" bed.
  • DD used to ball her blankets up in her crib for a pillow so we got her a toddler pillow from www.bobbleroos.com;  now DS uses it;  they were both about 18 mos old when they started;  DD now has a youth pillow which is smaller than a standard but bigger than the toddler.

  • Gave her a pillow when we put her in her big girl bed, right at about 2 yrs.

  • I put one in the crib with DD around 20 months.  She loved it and slept longer with it.

  • With DS we put a pillow in his crib at 1 year.  With DD we did it at 6 months.  They both slept 100 times better with a pillow.  We have an angel care monitor so I wasn't worried about it.  Actually for DD, we put the pillow under her crib sheet so she couldn't get under it.  I know it's controversial, and we've been given the Hmm for doing so, but it worked well for us.

  • B's had some form of pillow (folded blanket, small pillow, actual pillow) since he was old enough for us to feel confident he could get away from it if it got on his face. He really likes pillows.

    He currently has (at his request) two pillow pets, three mini pillows, and two full-sized (one is a king) pillows in his toddler bed. They usually wind up stacked three high for his head, and the rest get thrown to the end as sort of make-shift feet warmers for when he blankets get balled up.
