The Internet is full of horrific stories of how babies have suffocated to death because of using baby pillows. I think most of such stories are overstated. My personal experience in using baby pillows for my daughter from the age of one and half is a good example that it is not such a devilish product as it is made out to be. Yes there are some precautions which you have to take. Do not buy cheap merchandise, the so called best bargains, they are likely to be of poor quality and hence unsafe.I scoured WalMart, Woolworth and specialized baby product stores before deciding on which type of baby pillow to buy. A little bit of research on the Internet also helps. You can use a narrow but firm pillow or a memory foam pillow for the purpose. I, of course chose to buy a memory foam pillow which is a trifle expensive. As the name suggests, the memory foam pillow molds to the contours of the babys head and thus provides a very good support. I say this out of experience of seeing my baby sleep soundly without once bringing out the late night feed ever since she started sleeping on a memory foam pillow.
The benefits of a baby pillow dont end there. Doctors say that a slightly elevated head position is helpful in breathing especially if the baby has a cold. They also opine that pillow support prevents cranial deformities which can occur if the baby sleeps with head to one side for a long duration. Make sure you check the pillow cover. Just make sure you buy the softest, linen cotton material for a pillow cover. That will prevent rashes or allergic reaction which is possible if you use synthetic material. Soft pillows or feather filled pillows are a definite miss, the real culprit for all that negative publicity. So go ahead and use baby pillows and see your angel sleep soundly.
