    Introducing a pillow?

    My little amigo has co-sleeped with us on and off for the last year so he knows what a pillow is but has never had one in his cot.

    He was tired last night and jed poppe done in his cot and he went to sleep happily.

    Im worried about having the pillow in his cot (cot death ect) I have become such a worry wart with my fourth lol

    When did you introduce a pillow into your child's bed/cot?

    TIA

    DS was 19 months, I was also nervous and posted a thread on here with the same question. DS loves his pillow I think it helps him go to sleep quicker.

    Abou 10 months I think. DD use to (and still does) fling herself all over the place so I never worried about her smothering herself. She has slept a lot better since introducing the pillow.

    I've been wondering this. Jesse finds cushions on the floor & lays on them when he's tired.
    Maybe they'll help him sleep? I'm not too sure if I should yet though.

    DS co-sleeps some of the time and the first thing he will do is grab a pillow and lay his head on it. we are thinking of getting his own pillow when he goes into a bed in a few months. Apparently Tontine pillows do a toddler pillow which is a lot thiner and firmer than a normal pillow.
