Have your ever gone through an experience with your baby where their poor little head slumped over after they fell asleep? How about an instance where you were worried that due to a certain position they preferred to be in, their head might become flat? I have certainly experienced both of these scenarios and with more than one of my children as well. I’m happy to have found a wonderful product to aide in solving this problem.
The Baby Moon Pillow is a versatile product that serves as a head support AND neck support, all in one small, doughnut shaped, pillow. Invented by Kelly Su, a mom who needed a solution for her then 3 month old daughter Kaitlyn, after being told by her pediatrician that Kaitlyn was developing positional plagiocephaly, or flat head syndrome. Since her baby wasn’t a fan of tummy time or lying on her side, Kelly knew she needed a better solution in order to avoid any further intervention. That’s when she developed the Baby Moon Pillow! Three months later Kaitlyn’s pediatrician was impressed at the major improvements shown from using the pillow. It was time to produce it for the public and make it readily available to parents everywhere, facing a similar problem.
Head Support
From ages 0-6 months, the Baby Moon Pillow can be used as a head support in a car seat, swing, bouncer, or simply when lying down. Just overlap the right arm over the left arm of the pillow. Thanks to a small piece of Velcro on the Peek-A-Boo cover, it will create an opening while providing comfortable placement and optimal positioning.
Neck Support
From 6-12 months, the Baby Moon Pillow can be used as a neck support in a car seat, swing, or stroller. Simply turn the Peek-A-Boo cover inside out to hide the Velcro in order to avoid skin irritation. Please note: *It should not be used as a head support or pillow to sleep on for any infant over six months of age or for any infant that can roll over from back to front, as this may cause a suffocation hazard.
The Baby Moon Pillow is available in solids, stripes, and polka dot prints, with an organic line on the way. It is made 100% in the USA and machine washable. I love the idea of this pillow and can’t help but wish I had access to one during the time in my life when I was having babies. I can not tell you how many times I found little necks drooped and tiny heads slumped over in car seats, bouncers, etc. even with those standard head support items. Thankfully, the Baby Moon Pillow is here now and Baby B doesn’t have to go through this annoying problem.
We received a Baby Moon Pillow in Sage. I love how soft our pillow is. Basically like crushed velvet and the perfect amount of cushion for a fragile baby head. Since it’s versatile and has two different uses, it can be used for an entire year, as well as re-used for future little ones. That makes it a perfect investment! I do hope there will be an opportunity to purchase additional covers for the Baby Moon Pillow in the near future. That way if you had the opposite gender next or simply wanted a new cover for a new baby, you could do that without needing a whole new pillow. That would be the icing on the head support perfection cake!
