What I need is a pillow that is very soft and conformal on the bottom, with a kind of rigid foamy part on top. I sleep on my side with my arm under my head and I need a pillow that molds to my arm but keeps it separate from my head so I don’t pinch my sclipula.
Shredded foam, pretty much any kind, with a zippered end for adjusting. Toss it in the dryer on cool for 10m when it loses it’s floof.
This is the answer. Shredded memory foam 4 lyfe
I sliced a memory foam pillow to half thickness with a single edge razor and put it in the same case as a firm pillow. It’s stiff as fuck for the first week or 2, but hoo boy is it the best pillow I’ve ever had. My wife kept stealing my pillow, so she got the other half of the foam pillow
I have a single oversized pillow, it’s the best.
That’s why I have neck problems…
Replace bed with hammock, no need for pillow
Even in a hammock I use a very small camping pillow - the Snoozy from Wise Owl - but I sleep on my side, I can’t fall asleep on my back. When I first tried hammock camping I was up almost 72 hrs straight trying to fall asleep on my back. But I just curl up my legs and sleep like a baby now.
If you want to find the right pillow, go to a Sleep Number and try them out. It’s the only place I know that you can actually try them out before you buy, and their return policy is like 3 months. They have thin, thick, curved, memory foam etc.
2 pillow connoisseur here, it’s not perfect but it’s def better than being a 1 pillow andy.
I’m going to get one perfect porcelain pillow and live like an emperor
You just need the right pillow. Personally i find couch throw pillows to be way better than bed pillows
Ew. I’ve never met a couch throw pillow I’d allow in my bed.
It’s the same thing as a bed pillow, just feels slightly different
I have a big ass square pillow that I can fold over at my own leasure
Where do I uh… I mean what would you call uh… can I just…
Pfft two. I’m using 3 pillows. One for my head, one to hug, one to go on top of my head to block out sound and make me feel secure.
I suffered for so long and then finally caved and bought a custom-fit pillow for side sleeping. Literally had to go to a physio to measure the space between my neck and the end of my shoulder. It was some of the best $200 I have ever spent, I cannot recommend it enough.
What does a pillow like that look like? Got a pic?
I too wish for the secret knowledge
It’s one of these bad boys. Mine is specifically for side sleeping but they have back sleeper ones too.
How back sleeper pillow differ?
There is more space between your head and the ground when you are on your side
On your back you want a gradual increase in height from your shoulders up
A back sleeper pillow is the right size and shape to fit in a coffin, which is the only time you should be “sleeping” on your back.
the only time you should be “sleeping” on your back
Now why would that be? 🤔
What if you do both?
I’m not super sure but I think they just give you a different size that’s better fitted for in between. Mine is just a tad bit too tall if I sleep on my back, but I had requested a side sleeper only.
My problem is I sleep on all sides at any given moment. Never finding true comfort
Weed gummies help with that
Eh not exactly
for some.
Why does that cost so much? It’s just a different shape it can’t cost that much more to make than a normal pillow lol
The material is significantly better than other memory foam pillows of similar shape that I’ve had, but I suspect part of it is the gimmick too of like a medically approved custom sized pillow. I’ve had it for about a year now though and unlike other memory foam ones I’ve had, it’s kept its shape very well and is still as comfortable as when I first got it.
You gotta game the system man. One big good pillow and one lil bitch pillow. You will sleep like a king
This is what I do. 10/10 would recommend.
I use three like a fucking king
Rookie numbers! I unironically use 7 pillows. 3 for the head, 1 for my back (so I can sleep on my side and lean against the wall), 1 between my legs, and 2 to sandwich my feet into.
3 is a king, 7 is a fucking deity
“If man is 5 and the devil is 6, then that must make me 7”
When I stay in a hotel I take all four pillows and make use of them. I should steal the guest room pillows at home.
Holy shit, after years of trying to convince my wife to join Reddit it turns out you were here on Lemmy all along.
