is it appropriate to use for babies 2-3 weeks old? our baby's neck slides to a side when we would like it to be straight when he sleeps.

My niece has been using it since about 3 weeks in with no problems. She's still able to move her head a bit to the side, but not to the point where it'd be uncomfortable and undesireable where her head is flat on the side.

I used it when my child was 5-6 months old. He didn't fit perfectly but I got the belt as tight as it would go. then put blankets on either side of him to keep him sitting straight. He loved it. He's almost 3 and still loves riding in it.

I started using mine when my son was 4months old. As long as the baby has good head control and can hold his head up well by himself he should be fine

No. It is not designed for that and would not be safe. However, the seats recline and the two back seats are safe for infants of 2-3 monthd

9 months old is WAY too young--using a pillow in such a young baby would increase the risk of SIDS/suffocation. Wait until your baby is at least standing/walking independently, but ideally until 2 years old.

for the toddler seat, it is recommended that the child is at least capable of holding its head up without support, so it is not so much a matter of Height, but capability. Normally, I would say fro the Age 8 months and above, to be on the safe side. but some may be able to utilize it sooner, all depending on physique.

I used with my son when he was about 6 weeks old and he slept good with it. I would say ask your pediatrician if you think it is too early for your baby to use it.

As long as you are using it for rear facing it should be fine. I started using it around 8-9 months because my daughter wanted to sit up straighter. I continued to use it Until I turned her around at 2 years.

Hi John. I would use when baby is at least 3 months and up. My baby didn't develop a flat spot, but since he preferred one side I was worried he would and got this pillow.

Used 17 months now with no sagging. Only thing is, we used the infant side until 12 months, then I flipped it and the toddler side now seems firmer! That's because she broke in every square inch of the infant side. When we use it for a new baby, we'll just have to put it on the toddler side. They are both super similar anyway--I'm not worried a bit.

As a Pediatrician I wouldn't yet recommend use of a pillow for a 9 month old. I would recommend waiting until after 18 months.

Yes, you just have to place a good comforter so the baby is more comfortable. My baby started using it at 2 mo and right now he is 15 mo and he sleeps on it right on our side.

Maybe it is because babies under 1 shouldn't sit so forward in their seat...just as a general rule...so people with newborns don't use it and put their child's neck at a strange angle

I think every babies head must be different.. my son never had a problem with this and his head is still nice and round. Although he does like to move his head to the side at times while he sleeps in it..

It's best to use for an infant that is at least 3 months old. I tried using it for my son when he was two weeks and he kept sliding down the cushioned support making it difficult to wash him.

It's pretty straight up and down. I have not used the position with my 7 month old yet. We use the position where he's semi upright or all the way flat. I think the position your talking about is best for an older toddler, around 2 or 3 years old. At least for me, it's too vertical for an infant, but the other positions are great. We love this stroller! Very happy with our purchase and would buy one again in a heartbeat. I wish I knew about this when my oldest was a baby. I had 4 different strollers at one point and wasn't in love with any of them. Good luck and hope I helped with your question.

I bought this pillow, which professional reviews states is suitable from birth although I bought it at about 5 months. I further researched however, that babies don't need pillows to sleep and she has proven that by finding her way flat on the mattress rather than staying on the pillow. It's now used when I can monitor her during her daily naps.
