At what age...

Did you give your child a pillow & blanket in the crib? My son is a little over 7 months old and he sleeps okay in his crib but in our bed (During the day for nap time) he sleeps amazing with a pillow and blanket. He always points and cries for a pillow and blanket at night which makes me feel bad because I never give him one. Is he old enough for one in the crib?

We co sleep because our LO has reflux. Since day one he has slept with a very firm pillow (to keep him propped up to help with the reflux) and we shared our blanket.

I gave my son one at 5 months when he moved from sleeping in his swing to his bed. He's always had blankets too. His crib is like a SIDS risk nightmare honestly.

My son has acid reflux BAD I wonder if having a pillow helps him, maybe that is why he sleeps better in our bed.

13 months for pillow ( sometimes ) sometimes I take it away once I leave the room while he's already asleep.

Blanket, I'm not sure. For a long time we used the blankets the wear.

Does he roll around allot? My son is all over the bed which is why I worry about giving him a pillow and blanket.

Nah if anything he just kind of goes crooked and leans like in an L shape to the side. He's not a roller in general. He can, but doesn't care too. He has a pillow, stuffed animals, like 4 blankets under him and 2 over him. And randomly a cat too I'm sure lol

Another thing you can try is putting something under his mattress to help prop him up a bit. It will help with the reflux.

My LO is 3 1/2 months and we co-sleep. She doesn't use a pillow but we do share a blanket and when she naps in her crib I'll put a blanket on her just up to about her bellybutton. I don't plan on giving her a pillow any time soon though. Maybe try the blankets they wear like the sack type things?

Makes me feel better about giving him one, I think we will start with just a pillow and see how he does. Lol our cat is scared of his crib, she will get super close and look in and she flips out like something bit her.

Lol we tried that, he moved all the way to the other side of the crib where it wasn't proped up.
