My 5yo currently uses the IKEA crib pillow but now he's ready for a "big pillow" - he's a STOMACH sleeper. Is this thin enough for a stomach sleeper?

My 2 1/2 year old sleeps on her back or side, but this pillow even seemed a little thick for that. By morning her head is always just on the bed, beside the pillow.

The pillow is also very small. For a 5 year old I would recommend getting a standard sized pillow.

My 2 year old daughter uses it, and she's a stomach sleeper. As she falls asleep her head is on it, but by morning she's fallen off.

My 2 year old is still in a crib and this pillow is perfect for him. I believe that once he moves up to a toddler bed or a twin size bed, he might prefer a soft regular size pillow.

We had a lot of trouble with that. I ended up putting her on her stomach finally. He has slept perfectly ever since. I know they advise against it, but it's the only way either of my kids would sleep in their cribs.

They say "toddler pillow" but I've been able to fit a few of what I thought were normal sized pillows that I slept on in there! I'm not sure the dimensions of a "normal" pillow but almost all my bed pillows fit in it with no problem at all. :)

I am a tummy sleeper as well, and have found my pillow is a bigger problem than the bed. I don't sink into this bed much at all (it's nicely supportive) so my back/neck is more bothered when my pillow is too thick. I've found a thin pillow is best to avoid the arching that causes aches and pains. I use a hull pillow so I can adjust the thickness, and between that and this bed my back has given me very little trouble.

I find crib mattresses are too thick and firm than this ManmaDoo Kids matress. I really like MamaDoo Kids because its firmness is good enough for the baby and fits well in the playpen. I'm not sure if you know that babies should not put in mattresses thicker than 3 inches but this one is 1.5 inches if I remember correctly). Many people may use cribs but we thought it's better to put the baby in the playpen in the first 2 years before we move our baby to the crib. That's the reason why we bought MamaDoo Kids matress and we can use it for our baby's tummy time( day time) and it's easy to fold when we travel. If you use the playpen, maybe you should give this a try. You won't be disappointed. Our baby loves it!

I just googled and searched the web for it and couldn't find it. To be honest you don't need it. Use sheets/blankets for whatever your child is currently into. I have a 2 year old in this bed now and we just have plain sheets and it's fine. The bed is so cool it's not even needed. I dud find so corvette pillows by googling so there are some out there.

I think that the thinner the mattress the safer it will be for a boy. We used a thin mattress from Ikea. Also, the bed is quite tall. Our house is old and our ceiling is only 7.5". The thicker the mattress the less headroom you will have.

Im not an expert just a mom... I bought a sleep curve mattress for moses basket and used it until my daughter was 4 months and then bought the pillow. You should definitely consider sleep curve mattress it is great and quite affordable in moses basket size! She slides off the pillow now so half the time she is not even on it. So I can't say it is safe to use for a tiny baby because I started using it after four months.

It's not thin at all. My grandchildren slept on it (ages 9 & 14) and I asked them if it was comfortable or if they could feel the boards through the matress and they said it was very comfortable. I highly recommend it!

It's a regular size pillow. Depending on your head size, it should be ok. The side are not really firm. The pillow will probably be too big for a child. Hope this helps

In my opinion this pillow is not ideal for stomach sleepers. This pillow works really well for keeping your spine straight. I have a bad back and sleeping on your stomach is the worse thing a person can do.

Hi. Unfortunately no, it's thick and cozy, my fav blanket by far but more suitable for a crib as it's long. The best solution would be to buy a pack of the thinner muslin swaddler. They can fold up very compact and doubled up they are thick and cozier. Congrats on the twins!

The difference, as far as I can tell, is the size, so if you're going to get one, I'd take the toddler pillow, with the requisite caveat that just because they're called "baby" and "toddler" pillow doesn't make them inherently safer for babies under 1 year than any pillow. So, you know, that's up to you. If you're planning to put it in a crib, I don't know if the baby pillow would fit better, but I know I like the toddler pillows because I can kind of share them with my kids if I have to lie down with them for a while.

I've never seen the baby sized but I have the toddler pillow. In my daughters crib it still has atleast 3 in on each side if not more. And it is the thinnest Pillow I've found to date. We really enjoy.

Here's what I said in my review, "It may be thin relative to a standard king size pillow but is not even close to being really thin. " This is as thin a foam pillow I've found but it's still too thick for me. If anyone knows of one thinner, please reply to this query and let everyone know... Thanks

No, you should get something thicker. I'm about 130 pounds, and depending on how I lay, my hip or my bottom will rest on the mattress. But, it is much more comfortable than the matress alone.
