pillow in cot?

[ashtonsmum]

hi all, i only seen this forum wish id noticed it sooner as ive loads of things i would have loved advice on, well my son is 1 soon and he loves sleeping in our bed as the pillow, only thing is i dont sleep as hes in the bed and i get worried so i move him to his cot when hes asleep.

was wondering what age is safe to give a pillow in cot? i feel hes ready he loves them and can lift them off his face and move them (when hes playin peek a boo).

also any mums out there pregnant with a young one and having some bad days? xx

From a year I used a toddler pillow

I gave Rosie a normal pillow at about 18 months I think

AJ was around a year when we bought his pillow. He too slept much better in our bed on the pillow but I never slept! And was ready for his own.
I think if you feel your son is ready for a pillow of his own then his probably is

my little girl was in our bed from six till 12months when she turned one i though she is going in her cot but knew how much she loved a pillow after being in with us so i give her one off our bed just a small show pillow it worked but only prob is she loves it that much she takes it everywhere with her, you cant leave the house with out it, and to top it off she calls it pubey lol

I think Hebe was just under 1 when I gave her one after having a bad cough. I was told if you cant get a toddler one a cheap one that's hardly any stuffing is fine so its nice and flat
