when is it ok to start using a pillow? Anyone know of a good one to use?

hi,
My ds has just turned 1 and i was wandering whether he might like a pillow, especially when he has a cold or cough it's nice to have a raised head. He prefers to sleep on his front so don't want one that's too 'puffy'. Just firm-ish and fairly flat i guess. Anyone found any really good ones, or have experience with this?
thanks!

My DS (2.6yo) has just got his first duvet and pilow (have used sleeping bags until now) hes also a tummy sleeper, and has a sainsburys basic pillow, which he seems happy with, its quite firm and thin...and very cheap too!!

My DD2 is now nearly 15 months. I gave her a pillow about 2 months ago and she loves it. I just bought a standard soft (and fairly thin) mixed down / feather one. She sleeps on her tummy too and seems to love burying her face in her pillow!

Ds1 had a pillow at approx 18 months and loves it. I just got a bog standard one from M&S.
