DS is 14mo and altho' not a great sleeper, has started sleeping better, since I bought him a pillow at 12mo.

It cost £12.99 from mothercare - and the pillowcase was £5.99 - which I thought was expensive for two, until i got it home and realised it was only one!!! - anyway, it really does help, but he's been sick a few times and each time it's out of action his sleep goes down hill.

so, we need a spare or two, but I just can't afford to go out and buy them at that price! - can anybody recommend a good pillow for a baby? TIA.

you don't need a special baby pillow, as long as you get one that isn't too plump. I would avoid feathers too, as well, as polyester is washable, and less allergenic. Cheaper ones will clump if you wash them, though, so it's worth not gong for the super-cheap ones. M+S would be fine, I expect.

Ikea. Cotbed size pillow is 5.99, duvet 8.99 and bedding sets from 5.99.
Although the pillows do go rather flat rather quickly!

i got a tesco value one...£2 i think, because it was so cheap it is quite thin (i guess you dont get too much padding for that price) and its perfect.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
