The "correct height" drawing in that link juts the spine forward, which increases breathing problems like snoring.

by Complete-Citron 1 week ago

They are illustrating natural spine alignment. There are numerous images that clearly and effectively demonstrate in different styles and angles. Hence why I picked a link with multiple images provided to ease understanding. I think most are capable of getting the overall idea captured by the multitude of images provided and the article. I do apologise that it wasn't the case for you.

That's why I have 4 pillows. For myself. No joke between my wife and I we have 9 on our bed

Exactly. Op's way would leave my neck in pain, but so does a pillow that jacks up my head to near vertical.

I love an old, beat-up pillow. The flatter, the better.

by Anonymous 1 week ago

I have had the same flat worn out pillow for the last 20 years, it's gross, it may cause me to die early, but i don't care. It's so flat and perfect I can't sleep with anything else. Plus after these many years it became versatile, I can fold it and have a semi-bulky pillow or even position it vertically and have my neck fully supported.

by Middle_Wear 1 week ago

I have always slept on my side. And always had neck/shoulder pain until very recently. I got a cheap pillow without much bulk and it has changed my life. Maybe I sleep a bit more on my stomach than most side sleepers? But I've never had a cheap pillow until like three months ago and I am so surprised.

I don't use a pillow! I sleep on my stomach and it's most comfortable for me not to use a pillow at all. To each their own :)

I sleep on my stomach and always use one of my arms to rest my head on. Literally can't fall asleep any other way.

by doylereymundo 1 week ago

I am a stomach sleeper also and used to do this until i found a really thin pillow and it changed my sleep for the better, if you want the pillow brand let me know and ill check when i get home

It's about the sleeping position and different bodies. If you sleep on your side, like the majority of people, you will need a pillow as thick as half your torso to get your spine in one line.

I've spent 100s on super expensive supportive pillows. And my favorite by far is the worn out $5 pillow from Walmart. Totally agree.

My big shoulders would disagree heavily. I need a bulky pillow and a freezing cold room.

by Suspicious_Edge 1 week ago

I like a flatter pillow; if it's even slightly too thick, my neck hurts when I wake up. I'm so particular, I usually bring mine from home when I travel.

by New-Pea-5849 1 week ago

I don't like 'ultra thin' but I don't like big bulky. My favorite is a contoured memory foam pillow that has one side contoured for back sleeping, but do a 180 and it's geared for side sleeping. And my extra pillow I keep at my partners house is a non-bulk memory foam one as well. Bulky ones make me feel like I'm going to choke in my sleep.

I have two flat old pillows and one fluffy one. I sleep on all of them depending on how I'm laying

by Anonymous 1 week ago

you're sleeping on your back, I take it. the point of the pillow is to straighten your spine when sleeping on the side actually. a big pillow under your head when on your back will make your head push forward in a very not-ok position. but not having head support on the side, your head will fall to the level of your shoulder, which is not great.

by Anonymous 1 week ago

Do you sleep on your back? If you sleep on your side (or even your stomach), it can be good to have a supportive bed pillow so that your head isn't down, making your neck at an awkward angle all night (which could cause neck pain in the morning)..

I feel like hotels have large pillows just for the aesthetic of it. I've never found hotel pillows to be comfortable.

Have any of you thin pillow people considered those of us with wide shoulders that sleep on our sides? Lol… I Love, our reflexive bias that assumes all the peoples are experiencing all the things in the same way. 🥸🖤🏴‍☠️

Tempur-Pedic cooling pillow is where it's at. Thin pillows cause me to toss n turn, give me a sore neck and a headache. Always have since I was a kid.

by Anonymous 1 week ago

100 percent agree. I can only sleep on my back with no room left or right to turn. No pillow is best. That way my spine is straight. In fact that's how my great great great great great grandfather slept. On his back with no pillows. Just his buddies and him side to side on big ships.

by Egleichner 1 week ago

I agree. I buy cheap fiberfill pillows that I can scrunch up where I need support. I was having chronic neck aches with even a firm down pillow. Will never go back to the fancy pillows.

by Anonymous 1 week ago

It's different for everybody, but I have found over the years experimenting with firmer mattresses and less cushy pillows has a made a huge difference. Something that is immediately super comfortable when you lie on it might not be the best for you back and neck overnight and in the long run. I still can't sleep without a million pillows though.

I was having constant neck pain with my old pillow The pillow that I bought to fix this contours to my neck so my neck is always straight while I sleep I guarantee you it is better than your cardboard pillow

I have an expensive memory foam pillow. I find my neck and back feel better with my old cheap pillow. The memory foam one is good if I'm sitting upright though!

I use a bunch of pillows. I have like 7 pillows on my bed that I use. They are comfy and supports my head so I don't get sleep apnea. I kept getting sleep apnea throughout my life because I only used one pillow and I almost died quite a few times.

by evangeline67 1 week ago

Yes! It's horrible to have this preference because anytime I sleep outside of home I'm almost always relegated to using towels folded as a pillow

Pillows itself shouldn't be used, it's the worst thing for your spine.

Yeah, it is definitely on the more expensive side... But it is worth it. I had a very bad back pain since I always slept on the folded feather pillow... once I got this, it is like being in heaven. Also - no sweating. When I bought it, it cost 240 eur so it is pretty cheap now. You spend 1/3 of your life in bed... Make it enjoyable experience! :)
