Hi everyone. Pillows are the must for us to sleep. Hehe. Which type of pillow do you use. I have heard from people that if we use pillows that are thick, then it affects the blood flow in our neck. Is that true??? In that case, do you use pillows that are thin??? How many pillows do you use to sleep??? I use 2 pillows to sleep. Hehe. How about you????

ha finally some new discussion!! the pillow for me should be of medium thickness.. that would give comfort to my neck. very thick pillows would definitely make me feel uncomfortable. i always have one pillow for my head and one one pillow to hug!! hehehe lol have a nice day.

Hi. vidhyavini. I only use one pillow to sleep with at night. I use a pillow that is firm. It is somewhat thick like. When I lay my bed on my pillow my head sinks into the pillow.

I like to sleep with 2 pillows but just the normal size ones they have to be just right cant handle them to high but can't handle them too low either strange i know but that is just the way I am and another reason I dont like them flat is because i find it a bit hard to breathe and I feel all blocked up but if I sleep with 2 pillows then it isnt so bad and i dont get that blocked feeling as bad!

Congrats on reaching 1000 points. I like thick pillows with cotton. Not the soft ones with dunlop. I always take 2 pillows though I have heard its harmful.

Well i need soft pillow to sleep, usually i need 3 pillows to sleep, two for sleeping and one to grab in my legs, I feel comfortable that way but i can manage two pillow as well. And about this blood flow thing, i never care for these minor things, I am sleeping from 21 years and nothing happened yet. Then why should i care about thin and thick pillow.

To tell the truth, I never use pillows. I'm more comfortable with my mattress itself.I think I have not been using a pillow for the past 8 years. I feel that my body is flat and has a good posture for sleeping without a pillow.I have seen people sleeping with more number of pillows. One of my friends has around 5 pillows for sleeping. One for head, one for legs, one at each side and hugging one more pillow. I don't know how she is sleeping amidst all the pillows..

I don't mind using any type of pillow as long as I have good sleep. Some my friends don't even use pillow to sleep. They can sleep without any pillow with no problem. I use two pillow. One for my head and to hold when sleeping. I al so know a few people that used more than four pillows to sleep.

I use one pillow. Its a memory foam pillow. I love it and will never go back to a regular pillow again.

Hi friend! I use thin pillow,and that pillow was made by me when was a small kid.Normally I will use that pillow and sometimes I dont use one.I will get headache when im sleeping with two or more pillows.Im not comfortable with them.Even,I will sleep peacefully without any pillow.I wonder how people are sleeping with more than a pillow.Sleeping without a pillow is good for health,as your brain will get adequate supply of blood without any stress in pumping blood.So sleep with a thin pillow and live long.Happy mylotting.

I read only that using pillows is really un-healthly because it stretch your spine in wrong way... Yet still, I use two big pillows and 2 small pillows, I'm almost sitting in bed, but I just cannot fell asleep when it's too flat there ^^" It's always a problem on camp (I have no place to put a pillow) or when I'm staying at the hotel - I feel a little to shy to ask for 4 more pillows for my room ^^"

I use three pillows - one for my head, one for my arm, and one for my feet. Am I too excessive or what?
