    I was wondering when I should start giving Leane a pillow to sleep with?
    I have a playpen in the living room that is really padded (more comfortable than my bed, by far) and her crib is pretty soft, too. But our bed is pretty tough and I let her sleep on a pillow this morning, especially since she woke up with a really runny nose. Is it safe to start giving her a pillow to sleep on now? I really don't know! lol

    i think it's pretty safe to give her a pillow. i started letting aiden use a pillow since he was old enough to roll over and turn his head to the side he was about 5 months old. so as long as leanne can roll over and put her head to the side i think it should be ok.

    I would put the Boppy pillow in Zach's bed when he was all boogery when he was sick, so it kinda held him in place sitting up a bit and he wouldn't fall over, he's a violent sleeper too..LOL!!
