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.

One hard pillow as I sleep on my side and need the neck support. And then one bean bag tube type thing to rest my wrist on so that my arm doesn't have to be entirely horizontal—more comfortable that way.

I just use the duvet to go between my thighs/knees.

Please, tell me more about the bean bag tube type thing.

It's the best way I can describe it. It's an approximately pillow-sized tube filled with the stuff they fill bean bags with.

Gotcha, thanks.

how do you keep the arm with that tube thing? can you give a geometry/sketch/ascii?
