Mom Uses Prank Pillow Of Face To Help Baby Sleep | Happily TV

A mom has devised an ingenious hack to comfort her newborn baby who struggled to sleep without her nearby – placing a pillow of her face she’d previously bought as a prank next to the 10-week-old. Emma Cruickshank’s daughter, Evie, constantly wanted to feel like her mom was near, which meant putting the 10-week-old to sleep took some time. But, one day, Emma, 25, was trying to think of ways to comfort her daughter without her presence and remembered a prank gift she had bought her fiancé, Tylor, a few years earlier. Emma once purchased a pillow of her face, which she and Tylor rediscovered when they moved house in 2024. The pillow had been sitting on an armchair in a bedroom, and so one night when Evie was crying and taking a long time to settle, Emma placed the object next to her daughter. Sure enough, Evie was comforted by the pillow of her mom's face, and when the 10-week-old would usually start crying when her mom moved away, she instead fell asleep. The moment took place on January 28, with Emma, from Essex, UK, later sharing a short, fun clip of her daughter sleeping next to the pillow on social media. The clever hack soon went viral, with other moms even asking where they could purchase such a pillow to give Emma’s trick a try.
