Just curious....

when is it ok to let your child use a pillow?
i feel silly asking, but i really do not know when to try it

my daughter is 18 months old, and is in a toddler bed sidecar to our bed

i know when they are younger, pillows are no no's..but is it ok now?

i feel bad for her that she would be cozier with one :idunno

You have to decide for yourself, but my youngest is going to be 2 in October and uses one. It is one of the smaller, flatter ones. She has been using one in her toddler bed since about 15 months. Usually by this age they can move things away from their face. They notice when it bothers their faces.
