I need two pillows to sleep, one to keep my head and one to hug. I feel very uncomfortable if there are no pillows. I can get a good sleep if I sleep with pillows. How many pillows do you need to sleep?

I sleep using 3 pillow. One on my head, one I hug and the other on my legs like a bolster. me too i would feel uncomfortable if there are no pillows but even if there are pillows, the pillows must be soft for me. Sleeping on hard pillows gives me stiff neck. So when I go travelling and if space permits, I would bring my own pillow along - even if it's a hotel .

I got a total of 10 pillows, 1 for my head; another 1 above my head; 2 pillows both my sides; 1 pillow to hug; 2 pillows below my feet,; 1 pillow to cradle my legs; 1 pillow to cover my face; and 1 pillow for my legs to squeeze. that's how i can sleep comfortably.

Well am used to it, I can't sleep if every time I turn around I don't touch or feel a pillow, most times in fact I lie on my stomach and put all the pillows above me.

I usually sleep with two pillows. I feel very uncomfortable to lay my head on one pillow, or on three pillows, or something like that. I feel a lot more comfortable with two pillows.

Hello daliaj! I'm exactly like you. I need to make sure that I have two pillows and a blanket before I go to sleep because if not, I will surely feel uncomfortable and I would not be able to sleep at all. It's been my habit since I was young and I grew up with it. Now, it's hard to break that habit I eventually grew up with. The maximum pillows I need to have before I sleep are three. One on my head, one to hug and one on my feet. I really feel comfortable with pillows and blanket on my side. Happy myLotting!

Hello Daliaj. I need two nice firm pillows otherwise I can't get comfortable and I wake up with a sore neck and shoulders. I believe in spending a lot and buying the best pillows because we have to rest our heads on them for 8 hours and cheap ones are no good :)

well i generally need only one pillow and that is the pillow i need to hug . well but mostly i try to sleep straight so that i don't suffer from any neck pain and any back pain. i don't take any pillow below my head as it is more comfortable without any pillow.you should also try not to take any pillow below your head , it is very good and relaxing and gives you the best comfort.happy earnings.

Hello daliaj, I remember I posted a completely same discussion, ;-) and you even responded to it. Well I don't use pillows to sleep I just sleep like that, when my partner is beside so I use his arm to sleep on and when I am alone then I don't even need one to get a good sleep.

Exactly like you. 2 pillows for sure! One is for the head and the other one is for my legs to wrap around. If I don't have them, I'd rather stay awake.

I need 2 pillows, one on my head, and a five-foot hotdog pillow that I could hug, because I sleep on my left side..
