clutching at straws again!!!

just wondering if your little one has a pillow, if they do is it a normal one, or one designed for babies/toddlers (i see you can get natural silk ones?), at what age did they start using one...i am wondering if elijah might like one as whenever (i say this as if its rare har har) he is in our bed he always tries to use our pillows...

Yes Lily has got one, i think she had it from when she was about 1. It was just one from mothercare xx

Imogen has one. She's had it for a while now. It's just a cheap one we had as a spare in the cupboard, it's really thin. I'll get her a nice one one day but atm she's happy with the one she has.

I tried Caitlin with a duvet and pillow shortly after her 1st bday but she didnt take to it so I stuck with growbags/blankets. (Strangely like elijah but she didnt seem to mind pillows in my bed, just wouldnt use her own).

I turned Caitlins cot bed into a bed last week and put the duvet and pillow back out. She now sleeps on top of the duvet upside down , so still not using them. Im leaving them there but in the hope that as it gets colder something will click and she will start using them properly!

haha hmm interesting snoops!!!

i think i will keep him in his grobag, no way am i letting him loose without his cotbed sides any time soon! just thought he is probably old enough for a pillow though if he would like to be a big boy (he will crawl around the bed til he can curl up with his head on ours)

Oh and btw ours is just a set from argos like these ones

They quite thin and prob not the best quality but do the job... especially when that job is to be a decoration atm!

Ava has a small one, cant remember where I got it from, she does lie on it though x

tsk, well, remember pinky!!!!!!!!! i saw a silk one made by the gro company but it was 20something £ so erm....a bit less than that.

^ i dont think elijah wants to be a disney princess!

Ha, neither did Caitlin but her new peppa pig seem to be slightly more tolerable! Maybe if I go for dora next time she will use them properly!

I got a toddler one from Asda baby range - was £5 I think. Then another £5 for pillowcases duh!

Imogen's had it a couple of months I think (she's 18 mth now). Sometimes she sleeps on it, sometimes she pulls it round and cuddles it, sometimes she flings it to the other end of the bed, sometimes she sleeps sideways across it on her back..... you get the picture.

I was going to do away with grobags but, while she can kick off the covers if she's hot, she really can't manage snuggling down/pulling the covers up if she's cold so she just huddles up into a pitiful ball and grumbles until someone comes to sort her out. I think we might have to go back to bags for winter

Izzy has had one since she was about 4 months lol - she had a special baby one til she went in her big bed and now she has a normal one, albeit a very flat one!

Noah has had a pillow just one of our ones which was quite flat. His had that from about 9 months. His had a duvet, from the toddler duvet set for about 3 months now.

No ellie doesn't have a piilow. I'm super paranoid and have only just started to allow her a blanket.

Maybe when I turn the cot into a bed I might consider a pillow xx

Hannah has a pillow and duvet, has had since 8 months when she got a cold and found it easier to breath at night propped up slightly. Hers was £1 from ASDA, just a normal one thats really thin.

Thomas has the same and had his from 10 months.

Callum doesnt use a pillow he never sleeps on it. Weve got the pillow from toddler bed in a bag set x

alfie has one from ikea - really really thin. tbh he doesnt even use it. he ends up at the other side of the bed but sometimes he does sleep on it. he doesnt have a duvet tho - think itll be a while before he'll have one too xc
