Lovey Baby
Is my baby ready for a pillow?
My 16 month old sleeps with a 'lovey'. This week he has started sleeping ON the lovey, almost like a pillow. He lays on his tummy (with his feet drawn up the way many baby's sleep) cradel-ing the lovey under his head and upper stomach. I wasn't planning on giving him a pillow until he asked for one----maybe he's asking???? Oh, pillows for babys scare me!
Thanks in advance for your comments!
As a general rule, pillows for babys scare me also. Some experts recommend 12 months or older so he should be ok.
I wouldn't do it and he'll be better for it. Pillows unnaturally positions the spine anyways and almost all chiropractors will discourage using one so your son will be better off without one for awhile anyways.
Maybe he is just loving his lovey. As long as he seems happy with it, let him go.
When did your child found a lovey?
Many baby books and websites say that it is usual for toddlers to have a lovey (most often a favorite blanket or a cozy toy). My 1-year old does not have one. I wonder, maybe she will find one later?
Three of my best friends had a little competition as to who's cuddly toy will win as my sons most loved....none of them won and he picked a random teddy that a neighbour gave as a present. You can force them to have a "lovey". My son had an attachment to his "blue ted" from about the time he could commando crawl to get it (about 5 1/2 months) to this day it is still the fave and he is almost three. Blue ted is getting scruffy from so much love, so i found him the same teddy in yellow (as i couldnt find a blue one) and he took one look and tossed it aside. So i guess blue ted will be the fave until he falls apart. (not looking forward to that day lol)
