Baby Position Holding Structure and Baby Pillow

Abstract

The present invention relates to a baby position holding structure in which a position of a baby is appropriately held so as to prevent oxygen saturation from being lowered, and a baby pillow on which an airway in a throat is not blocked. A baby position holding tool ( 60 ) comprises a mat ( 61 ) extending from right to left and up and down, and a pair of body supports ( 62 and 63 ) positioned on right and left sides of the mat so as to abut on both sides of a body of a baby laid on the mat. The body supports include lower parts ( 62 b and 63 b ) supporting rear faces of the sides of the body of the baby from beneath, respectively and upper parts ( 62 a and 63 a ) positioned on the lower parts so as to be shifted outward and abut on the side of the body of the baby from the side, respectively. The pillow ( 10 ) comprises a pair of head positioning parts ( 12 ) having a first height and supporting both sides of a rear part of the head of the baby from beneath, and a neck supporting part ( 13 ) having a second height lower than that of the first height and supporting a neck of the baby positioned by the pair of head positioning parts from beneath.
