Pillow for newborn

Question

Hi fellow mummies! I’ve read somewhere that no pillows should be in the cot with newborn due to suffocation/ SIDS risk. Would like to know ur opinions on the following:- When can we start to introduce baa baa sheepz bedtime buddy?- When to start using beanhusk pillow to put on baby’s tummy? #advicepls #firstbaby #firstpregnancy

Hello, so I’ve spoken to a doctor regarding this. Bean husk can be used from newborn and only to use when baby is under supervision (napping in the day, etc). At night, there should be nothing in the cot and if baby is swaddle, they won’t have that startle reflex too. For Baa Baa, it is recommended to only give baby after 6 months as it contains micro fibres and newborn’s lungs are not as developed so breathing in these micro fibres are not good for them. Hope this helps!
