I think by about 14 months DD had a pillow, blanket, and stuffed animals in her bed. Chat Icon

blanket- My kids had them since birth. First they were swaddled, then when that was over, I would put them to sleep without a blanket but put one over them when I checked on them before I went to bed around 11.

Pillow - 14 months for both. Both had little colds around that time and instead of elevating the mattress I gave them pillows and both loved it so we never removed it.

DD has had blankets since winter, so roughly 6-8 months old. She's now using her stuffed animals in bed as pillows at 16-months old, so we think it's time to buy her a pillow.


For those of you who have a pillow, what did you purchase and where? The pillows I have seen seem huge and too big for her crib.

DS is 15 months. At 12 months I started putting 2 stuffies in there with him, but he ignores them. We don't use a blanket. He's in a sleepsack every night.

DD is 16 months.
Wears a sleep sack. I've tried a blanket a bunch of times and she moves around too much.
I have been wondering if I should give her a pillow or not....
Maybe I will try

ETA: she sleeps with2 loveys....1 she is obsessed with and the other she could care less about but it's good back up.

We moved DS into a toddler bed at 22 months with a pillow and blanket. He has no interest in the blanket so we put it away, but he uses a full size pillow now.
