    When your little man gets older, he'll use the top sheet, no problem! I also use the top sheet in the car

    Look for "junior" pillows - they are at Adairs, Harris Scarfe, Myer etc. I haven't looked at Target or KMart. Guess they'd also be at BabyCo / Baby Bunting ...

    Our DS is almost 2 and going into a big boy bed this week so I've never used the top sheet.

    Thanks for the places about the pillows though.

    We got a quilt from my mother, and a sheet set with a pillow cover, we are just using them as decoration, but neither of them would fit a junior pillow in them and they were both different sizes! I just sewed up normal sized pillows so that it would fit and it looks great now.. still waiting on a baby to enjoy it with me though

    Our cot converts into a juniour bed..that's when I use mine. The pillow case then as well as I use a small pillow.
    I got the boys a made to measure pillow and the small pillow case fits those really well.
    Only used the the top sheet right at the start as a newborn for a couple of weeks then only a fitted sheet and put them into a gro bag or snug time suite depending on weather.

    We never bought cot sets... just folded single sheets in half... but we were given some with those little pillow cases... my mum just bought some wadding and made up a pillow to size... easy as.

    I use the pillowcase to store the clean set in - I do the same with all of our linen when not being used so I can find the whole matching set in one go. As I don't use a pillow for the cot sets (yet) the one matching the set in use just stays in the ironing basket until I wash the matching set (with all my odd socks!). Then they get folded and stored in the pillowcase.

    With the top sheet, until they are older I keep one in the nappy bag as a ground cover/change table/ shadecloth.... and another in the boot of the car for the same reason.

    Hey Sequoia!

    We didn't use our top sheets for ages either. But we do a bit now, like when it's hot miss L might just have a top sheet on. Also, like Spooky, we use ours over the change table when I'm washing the cover for that.
    As for teeny weeny pillows, we got ours from baby road I think.

    ps. How funny if we are both in hospital at the same time!!
