when to start giving her a pillow?
She sleeps really well and I am not going to introduce the pillow for any other reason that maybe she is just old enough for one?
In the mornings when she gets up, sometimes she comes into bed with me for half an hour or so while we 'come round'! She always lies down with her head on my pillow.
At what age have you introduced pillows and have you put them in cots?
She is 14 months on Monday and in a cot. She sleeps in a travel cot for naps 3 days a week when my Mum has her and the odd night when we go out. We are currently house sitting for my parents and she has slept in her travel cot every night for 2 weeks quite happily.
What size pillow do you start with, is she too young? Do you put it under the sheet or should I not have one at all in her cot?
So many questions!!
Sorry but thank you in advance!

it is just a normal sized pillow but it is quite flat (not like a new pillow, i think its one we've had for a while that he kept stealin from our bed lol).
we didnt bother putting it under a sheet or anything. we were quite confident that he would be ok though. he is a big boy and ha slept in my bed for a few months and was fine so we were fine with it.
go with your gut feeling hun. its a gift mums have

I believe medical advice is not before 12 months so you're safe to...
however i gave rio a baby pillow when he was about one but he still always prefered feather ones so i gave him one of those not long ago!
but he can def have one at 14 months, you might find he sleeps a bit better to lol x
It is part of the 'grow bag' range so has zips that attach to the bottom sheet so stays put!
We have just given him the matching duvet too (which also zips) which is also really good.
I think the attachable ones do give you peace of mind.
So long as lo is over 12m, I don't see a problem. xx
Where did you buy the gro bag range? Sounds really good.
My two (18 mo) always sleep on their front with their bums in the air (elegant!) so I'm not sure about a pillow yet, but that said they do like it when they come in with us.
Charlotte has had a pillow & duvet since we took the sides off her cot at about 18 months. We got cotbed size. She loves snuggling on her pillow.

they are good but as ccbmommy says, are also a tad expensive
