A mustard pillow is a small baby pillow filled with natural mustard seeds. Traditionally used in Indian homes, it gently supports a newborn’s head, helping maintain natural shape and comfort during naps.

Yes — when used correctly and under supervision, mustard pillows are highly beneficial. They help distribute pressure evenly, support natural head shape, and provide gentle warmth that keeps your baby cozy and relaxed.

Mustard seeds are known for their natural warmth and ability to adjust to your baby’s head shape. They help distribute pressure evenly, support proper alignment, and promote healthy blood circulation — making them ideal for newborn comfort.

The mustard seeds move naturally to fit the contour of your baby’s head, distributing pressure evenly. This helps reduce the chances of developing a flat spot (positional plagiocephaly) and encourages a naturally rounded shape.

You can begin using the mustard pillow from birth during supervised naps or rest. It’s best suited for babies up to 12 months, after which their neck muscles are stronger and the pillow may no longer be necessary.

Tulo Baby reimagines this traditional practice with a modern, safe touch — using organic mustard seeds, breathable cotton covers, and hypoallergenic materials that are gentle on delicate skin. Every detail is thoughtfully designed for today’s parents who value both tradition and safety.

No. Like all baby pillows, the mustard pillow is best used during supervised rest. For overnight sleep, your baby should lie on a flat, firm surface without any pillow as per safe-sleep guidelines.

Remove the outer cotton cover and hand wash it gently. Do not wash the mustard seed insert, as moisture can spoil the seeds. To refresh it, air the insert in sunlight occasionally.

With regular use, the seeds may settle slightly, which is normal. Simply gently shake and fluff the pillow to redistribute the seeds evenly. With proper care, it will maintain its shape for months.

While not a medical solution, the gentle warmth and pressure of the mustard seeds can help calm fussy babies and offer mild comfort during colic episodes. Always supervise and avoid elevating your baby’s head excessively.
