Question

At what age can a baby/toddler start to sleep with a pillow?

Answer 1

When I moved my kids from their crib to their big bed at around 2 years of age (plus or minus a few months) I gave them a very flat pillow to sleep on.  Neither my son or daughter even used it at first but they got used to it over time.

Answer 2

I've read that not until the child is 2.  I didn't let my daughter have one until she was almost 3.  I'm a bit obsessive.  But am getting better.  My son is just 14 months old and he's getting one real soon.  He LOVES pillows!

Answer 3

same here.... when he went to a toddler bed....

about two years old....he was very ready for it....no worries of suffocating....

he was strong...and woke up...easy enough ....manipulated blankets....etc..
