The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Snoring pillows for babies are designed to elevate baby's head to open airways. But here's what today's pediatrics says: Don't use pillows for babies under 1 year—they raise the risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). The American Academy of Pediatrics and health authorities everywhere recommend that cribs stay empty—no pillows, blankets, bumpers, or stuffed animals. Snoring usually comes from a stuffy nose (cold, dry air), sleeping position, or anatomy. Instead, try: keeping baby's back for sleeping, humidifying the room, and clearing baby's nose with saline drops before bed. If snoring is every night, baby can't breathe right, or there are pauses in breathing during sleep, talk to your pediatrician—not a pillow.
