Pillows and Sleep Style

[Jules]

What type of pillow do you use for sleep?

Does your sleep style affect your choice of firmness.

 

[Paco Dennis]

I have three various shaped pillows in the chair I need to sit in all day and sleep in. I adjust them as the day progresses.

 

[RadishRose]

Real latex foam rubber pillow. I guess it's a medium "softness".

 

[Jules]

An ad for a mattress store was about them having the perfect pillow for every type of sleep style, then they just mentioned back and side.
I’m a stomach sleeper and this doesn’t seem to be a choice in the places I’ve looked lately.

Anyone I know who carries their pillow for travel always has a really soft one.

 

[oldaunt]

Has to be a good feather pillow. I can punch that into any shape I need at the moment. And they don't hold body heat like foam does.

 

[Gaer]

No pillow.

2 pillows with duck down

 

[Lewkat]

Soft pillow with duck down.

 

[jujube]

If I sleep on feather or down pillow, I wake with a stuffed-up nose. I must be allergic. I like memory foam pillows.

 

[NorthernLight]

As a child, I had no pillow. In adulthood, I started using a pillow, but I took out half the stuffing before using it.

Now I use two regular pillows. I have no preference regarding foam, fiber, or down.

My head is permanently tilted to one side. I think it's from spending my childhood sleeping on one side without a pillow.

 

[PamfromTx]

I have two regular pillows that I use under my head, one feather pillow for over my head and a body pillow that I rarely use. I look like a cocoon.

Feather & Duck Down Pillows

Yup
Gotta be downy
Punch it into shape
Nestle my good ear into the cool side
Ease, consciously, into a deep REM
Drool a river
Snort awake
Flip it to the other cool side
Punch it
Nestle
Drift back, waaaay, back......into a coma

 

[Knight]

Duck down for ability to shape it to my head. As for sleep position that varies. I usually start on my right side.

Yeah, I gotta start on my left side
Do a couple crosswords
Kill the light

We spoon at first
Then one of us gets a kink
That's when it becomes everbod for themselves

I'm part dog, and given to running in my sleep

My lady has to tuck the covers under her
in order to have any by morn

 

[CarolfromTX]

Foam, in a special shape designed for side sleepers.

I like the idea of separate covers that they seem use in many parts of Europe.

 

[IKE]

Feather & Duck Down Pillows

Yep, the only way to go.......no foam / rubber pillows for this ol' boy.

We just purchased two king size, firm, down & feather pillows this past weekend......been sleeping like a baby all week.

We like to cuddle/snuggle, so one set of HUGE blankets does it for us

But
sometimes I run
.....or flop around

 

[LadyEmeraude]

I use two moderate firm but yet fluffy bed pillow, I must be able
to contour my neck to the pillow, so one is memory foam.

Also I use a very thin pillow for between my legs to give me some
relief of pressures from my lower back.

I sleep like a rotisserie chicken, so always having to move about,
this three pillow set up works well for me.

 

[Jamala]

I use a firm orthopaedic pillow..one that fully supports my neck. I sleep on my back so the pillow is not too high.
