Guest guest Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 Pris, I didn't know you had ever slept in my cement bed! I have a foam topper and that really helps a lot. Also, I use a body pillow for between my knees. Contact of my knees and or ankles together equals no sleep.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 We got the foam topper at Wal-Mart. It isn't a top of the line expensive one but it works wonderfully.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 I have a select comfort (air chamber) mattress with a memory foam topper. I sleep with 4 pillows which I position according to comfort. I feel best with a very soft, but supportive surface. I can't sleep on inner spring mattresses. I had a water bed for years but that wasn't the greatest for me. If I could have any other bed, it would be the Tempurpedic. I have a Tempurpedic pillow and it is heavenly!

This helps to keep me from rolling over onto my right shoulder. I have slept on my right side all my life, and in a flat bed I will roll over as soon as I go to sleep and it will wake me right up! With the elevated head, if I do roll, I don't roll completely over, and having the head elevates keeps some of the weight off the shoulder. When it is really bad I sleep in the recliner chair.
