Sleeping in the Boppy Pillow...

My two week old infant DS sleeps very well in the boppy pillow (for hours). He's not into the swing or the basinet. Is it bad to allow him to rest and sleep in the boppy pillow??

Only if you're sitting right there. I wouldn't leave him in a room like that.

This is how DS took his naps for the first few weeks. He was always a belly sleeper, we were right there of course.

DD slept on the boppy pillow when she was little like that. Somedays that was the ONLY way she would sleep.

Re: Sleeping in the Boppy Pillow...

My twins have been sleeping in their boppys since they were born because it helped with their reflux. I never left them alone when they were that little because they could slide down. But, now that they are almost 5 months, I let my DS nap in his Boppy (he is a terrible napper and that is the only thing that works) and I just keep the monitor on (he is swaddled, so he doesn't really move).
The Boppy has a warning on it that babies shouldn't sleep in it, so it is a personal decision, I guess.

This is how my 2 week old naps sometimes too. He's been very colicky and this seems to really help. I am always sitting right next to him though bc he does slide down.

Yep.
I didn't let her sleep on there all night but for naps it was the only place she'd sleep
I just kept an eye on her...i didn't see it being an issue ever

I used the Boppy for the trio to sleep with but had them on their backs either in the PNP or the crib....even though the label says dont use for sleeping I did and the kids were fine...as you can tell I dont follow directions well......Chat Icon Chat Icon

This is what we did too. I have to say though, DD loved cuddling up in there and sleeping. I know the label says not for sleeping but they don't sleep when they're that little...they just take a TON of naps Chat Icon. We used to prop her in the boppy right between us in bed and all sleep.
