The Theraline Baby Pillow for Plagiocephaly is the only Baby Pillow available that is safe to use with a newborn baby. Due to the clever manufacture and materials used it allows for air to pass through the pillow and will not cause breathing problems if the baby pushes their face against it.
Over the last few years, measures to combat SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) have been both drastic and successful: experts advise that babies should sleep on their back or sides at all times without a pillow on the bare mattress. In doing so, the probability of SIDS is thus reduced considerably – as is the baby’s comfort.
Unfortunately, holding the same position over an extended period, with the baby’s soft head on the hard surface, the baby’s skull can become deformed. Although no definite figures have been ascertained, studies show that up to 50 percent of babies are affected to some extent. The company Theraline has responded to this development by creating a special pillow for babies, which enables them to lie comfortably in the optimal sleeping position without the danger of overheating or of breathing CO2 back in.
The product is the first of its type not to use memory foam. Memory foam can lead to overheating, suffocation and the breathing of dangerous fumes.
