It is unnecessary to give pillows to infants, but, if you choose to put them on one, the infant will wiggle off of it. Babies tend to put their head sideways when laying on their backs or stomachs. While a parent may think of a pillow as a comfort, for the baby, having a pillow in the crib is not comfort, but danger, as babies do not have the ability to move a pillow that might be obstructing their ability to breathe. That is why no crib set is included with pillows and that includes Max baby bedding.
Stuffed animals pose an even greater danger of suffocation to a baby if they are left in a crib or bed. Stuffed animals are dangerously attractive to young children, who love to hug the precious toys, but may be too tiny and weak to push their “little friends” away when they obstruct their breathing or movement.
