For the first pillow to lay the head of your baby you need a specially made baby head pillow. Babies younger than two years could suffocate it they are given a baby head pillow to sleep on. After the age of two it is important that the baby uses a pillow to avoid ear infections that affect the baby if its head is not elevated and exposed to the cold. Baby head pillows come as a set of two sizes to grow with the baby.
Baby head pillows are available in retail stores but the choice can be limited. The best place to shop for baby head pillows is the internet because it offers immense choice in design. Baby head pillows are shaped to adapt to the form of the head of the baby and the hole in the middle of the pillow keeps its tender head in shape.

Alternatively, if you pick a neutral design for the baby pillow it will coordinate with different bedroom themes as the child grows.
What type of design do you want to create on the personalized baby pillow? You can get as creative as you want. One traditional option for a baby pillow is to include the full name of an infant and details about his or her birth, such as height, weight, and birthday. You could also use a favorite quotation, short poem, or scripture. A simple, yet classy, option is to put just the initials on a baby pillow in script.

A bumper pad, if used, must be firm and snugly fitted. There should be no baby pillow, stuffed toys, etc. in the crib with the infant. In response to increased incidence of flat head syndrome, alternate methods of prevention were advised. The AAP felt the use of alternate positioning or a baby pillow were not worth risking SIDS.
