WILL MY BABY BE UNCOMFORTABLE WITHOUT A PILLOW?

When Can He Have a Blanket and Stuffed Animal?
It's usually safe for a child to start sleeping with a blanket or duvet at around the same age that he can sleep with toddler pillow. By 2, he should be able to safely sleep with a blanket in his bed, provided it's small and thin. Your toddler pillow doesn't need a comforter or fluffy duvet yet. Many parents find that sleep sacks make a better alternative to blankets, anyway. A cozy sleep sack will keep your child warm all night, as opposed to a blanket that may end up bunched at the foot of the mattress. A sleep sack also can prevent your mischievous toddler pillow from climbing out of his crib.

Size – A regular adult pillow won’t do because it’s too big and high and your baby might suffocate on it. Instead, use pillows specifically made for toddlers, commonly at 12” wide and 18” long with 1-inch height.
Comfort – The baby pillow you should choose is something not overly soft to avoid suffocation and not hard to be uncomfortable.
Safety – Allergens and irritants like dust, pollen, and mites are lurking around your home, and you don’t want this on any of your baby pillow bedding! A hypoallergenic pillow reduces the risks of irritation caused by these allergens.
Fill material – There is a wide range of toddler bedding fill material available such as foam, memory foam, fiber, latex, and feather.
Washable – Soiling baby bedding like toddler pillows are inevitable. Choose a toddler pillow that can be easily cleaned or machine-washed.
Preparing and decorating your child’s bedroom is a fun process that many new parents look forward to. While a big part of decorating is choosing colors for the crib, your baby’s bedding needs are a lot simpler than yours. In fact, your baby doesn’t even need a toddler pillow in the earliest years of his or her life.
If you are wondering at what age should a child use a toddler pillow, the answer is at around 2 to 3 years old. When you transition your toddler to a normal bed, you can choose to introduce a toddler pillow, which is usually thin and firm. Even after the newborn stage your infant could turn face down into the pillow or less likely, put their head under it. So even though your child has slightly more mobility after passing the newborn stage, it is important to wait until they are 2-3 years old to introduce other bedding.
