If I recall, my son was almost old enough to ask for a pillow when he got one. He never had a pillow in the crib but after he got his own bed he got a very small and thin pillow, it was the same pillow I had when I was little. When he was almost four, he started stealing pillows from my bed so then I got him a bigger one. I have a bad habit of using too many pillows myself but it's not good for the back or the neck so as long as there are no complaints, I would suggest no pillor or just a very thin one.

hi there, doctors and people do advise all the risks of putting a child to sleep on a pillow, but i never took there advice to be honest, y baby has had a pillow since she was around 3 months old, she just finds it easier to sleep and hugs it while sleeping and she still uses one now, if you do intend to buy one now or in the near future, just buy one that's soft and not too puffy and it will be fine, but it has been fine with my child! :)

when ur buying a pillow always take care that the pillow shouldnt be too soft and neither should it be too solid....the foam content shouldnt easily bend by your hand....but again it shouldnt get too tough to bend it also...

I would personaly wait until they're a year old for a proper pillow, but pillows are known to give neck problems at young ages. I would wait until then to get a good nice pillow.
I would go to your local baby stores and ask the clerks. Remember to test the pillow to see if you can still feel your hands, make sure it doesn't have feathers etc incase the baby gets into them.
Although just letting them sleep at this age is fine, they dont really need a pillow until they're at least a year old. It's nice to have a nice cover and good place to sleep, which is nice and comfy if you understand what im saying at all.

I have 4 children and I didnt give them a pillow untill they were about a year old. By adding a pillow to your crib now you have a very high risk of SIDS and you dont want that. At 4mo old the child is still learning to turn there head when they sleep. Please wait till your child is about a year. I know it sounds like a long time but you will greatly reduce the risk of SIDS.
