At what age is it safe to let your child sleep on a pillow? I've noticed my son using the pillows on our couch when he lays on it and even laying his head on his blanket bunched up in his bed. I don't want him to be uncomfortable but I don't want to be unsafe either. Anyone know?

I must be a bad mom, mine had pillows in their cribs once they could crawl. Oh blankies too DS is attached at the hip to his blankie. (at nighttime he's not like linus or anything)

Maybe I'm just being silly. Now I feel bad. I guess I just got used to being so careful about that that it didn't occur to me that I didn't need to be anymore. Thanks. 

Alex got a big stuffed frog for his 1st birthday that he used as a snuggle pillow.  He didn't really get a real pillow until he moved to his big boy bed when he was 2.

I didn't give either of mine pillows until they were in their toddler bed.
