Question

Can a full-month-old baby use a pillow?

Answer

Newborns, as their spines have not yet formed physiological curves, have their back and back of the head on the same plane when lying flat, and their head and body are also on the same plane when lying on their side. Therefore, it is not recommended to use a pillow. It is suggested to start using a pillow only after the baby is three months old, begins to lift their head, the spine develops a forward physiological curve, and the shoulders broaden, to ensure comfort during sleep.
