What kind of pillow setup do you have when you sleep? (lemmy.world)

I feel like I used to have a satisfactory layout for years but haven't since found a consistently comfortable arrangement. I like to have a fairly thick pillow or two under my head to accommodate my bad shoulder, a pillow between my thighs to avoid chafed skin, and a pillow for hugging - also mostly for my shoulder.

The head ones tend to get distorted really quickly and it's really difficult to find a good hugging pillow.

An adjustable, removable fill, cutout, side sleep pillow. https://a.co/d/aXcI4Wx

I’ve even bought one for my step mom. The brand is amazing, and removable fill is the way to go.

I've tried one of those - not that brand, a generic one - and sadly found that I tend to slide down in my sleep, leaving my head in the cutout overnight. Perhaps a nicer brand would resolve that. Thank you for the recommendation!

Oh interesting. I’m not sure about the sliding down, I’ve not had that happen. The one I linked holds it shape very well, the recommendations actually say you should fluff it every night but I have only fluffed it like 4 or five times since getting it years ago.

You’re welcome for the recommendation!

I think I might have been thinking of this one.

[–] tyler@programming.dev 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Holy cow that’s an expensive pillow. I thought mine was expensive lol

Sadly, for me, it wasn't worth the cost; however, my kid did enjoy laying on it to watch TV for at least a few days, so perhaps they'd recommend it.
