I have a really thick pillow so I only use one. Most hotels I stay in have very thin pillows so I need like all of them to even think about falling asleep.

I have 3 pillows, but I only sleep on one of them.

I have problems with my neck and if I have too many pillows under my head, unless they are also under my upper back to raise me up in an inclined position, I will have a massive headache when I wake up.

The one pillow that I use for my head is so deformed from my manipulating the sides into "neck rolls" so that the pillow supports my neck and my head. The other pillow is next to it and is there for Chynna to sit on when she wants cuddles and also to prevent my head from falling to the bed when I roll over in the night. The 3rd pillow is my cuddle pillow.

I´m struggling with pillows at the moment - Pam are you suffering from neck/back aches and thats why you have so many - I have neck and or shoulder aches most mornings and keep messing around with my "pillow configuration" its driving me mad !!

This has me cracking up laughing
I dont put all 8 under my head


I sleep with pillows all around me. I dont even know how to describe it. Some under my head, some beside me for me to hug, one between my legs .... just pillows all over and that doesnt include the pillows my cats sleep on. And I sleep on a pillowtop mattress Im just pillowed all over. I dont have any back problems, I just like sleeping in a poof
As cold as I can get it, lots of pillows and blankets

I have two pillows but only one goes under my head... I used to always have two pillows under me but ever since I got this memory foam contoured pillow I only needed one! The second pillow goes next to me or sometimes over my head

Just one. I have a funny shaped memory foam one and a regular pillow, and I alternate between them. I like snuggling up with my pillow, and the memory foam isn't very good for that, so I just use that whenever my neck/back are feeling sore.

I'd love to sleep with two, but due to space issues I can only have one. I have been known to sleep on DH or one of the boys depending on who is in the bed at the time.

Here... or There... Hmmm
We have way too many!! Most we don't really sleep on.. There are currently 9 regular pillows and two of those squishy beanlike pillows (one a lady bug one a butterfly) I also have 4 or 5 other beanlike pillows a dog, a cat, a fish, a whale, and another one I think. DH still thinks we need more pillows!! He's crazy!

I sleep with one medium sized pillow. I hate big pillows. They make my neck hurt.
