This post is many months in the making. It all started with back pain, along with the fact that I wasn\u2019t particularly fond of any of the pillows I\u2019d used before. While I knew a pillow was not going to alleviate all<\/em> of my body\u2019s aches, I\u2019d heard from my chiropractor that your sleep comfort can have a big impact on how you feel throughout the day. I figured a pillow swap was worth a try, and I\u2019ve spent plenty of time testing out different bed pillows.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s post, we\u2019re diving into my reviews of seven different bed pillows. I hope this helps you find your own elusive \u201cperfect\u201d pillow and leads to a better night\u2019s sleep.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Lifetime of Bad Sleeping Habits<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I\u2019m currently chronicling the overhaul of my sleep situation, and I\u2019m tackling it from all angles. HRT, food, screen habits, magnesium<\/a>, eye masks, noise machines, sheets, mouth tape<\/a>, and sleep position. I\u2019m even thinking about adding a weighted stuffy to the mix. Right now I steal my kids\u2019 when I wake up with a racing mind. It\u2019s amazing how quickly my body relaxes. This cute goose<\/a> would be a nice addition to the bed setup.<\/p>\n

Side sleeping is the one bad habit I\u2019d keep forever if it cost me nothing. Lately, I wake up to a shoulder that\u2019s on fire, or an arm that\u2019s gone completely numb.<\/p>\n

One of the best things I did when I turned 40<\/a> was take up tennis, and side sleeping is quietly trying to take it away from me. I want my shoulders to last as long as I want to keep playing.<\/p>\n

Side sleeping is also hard on your hair, your eyebrows, your eyelashes, all of it thinning and lightening right on schedule as you get older. I\u2019m not delulu about the natural consequences of a life well lived. But it still seems like an all-around win to tackle it. <\/p>\n

1. Sleep & Glow Omnia Pillow<\/strong> Review<\/strong> <\/h2>\n
\"Sleep<\/a><\/figure>\n

The Omnia<\/a> is a special little pillow for side sleeping. It has a cutout built for your face, so you\u2019re not smashing your cheek into flat foam, and a separate zone for when you eventually roll onto your back, so it\u2019s easing you between the two instead of forcing a hard switch overnight. It\u2019s made of memory foam that softens with body heat, and it comes with the promise of fewer sleep wrinkles, which, fine, I\u2019ll take it, but that\u2019s not really why I\u2019m using it.<\/p>\n

While testing this pillow, I found I was more willing to toss it aside for my normal one, and because I move around so much in my sleep, my face was still finding something to smash into.<\/p>\n

2. Sleep & Glow Aula Pillow<\/strong> Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Sleep<\/a><\/figure>\n

The Aula<\/a> is a pillow that\u2019s helping me graduate to sleeping on my back. It has a bolster on either side of your head holding you in place, a ridge under the neck, and a cradle shaped for the back of your skull, with a foam insert if you need to raise or lower the whole thing. Just like the Omnia<\/a>, it\u2019s made of memory foam that softens with body heat.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This back sleeping pillow, however, is much more forgiving of my tossing and turning. It has a nice depth to it, and my face could be cradled by the sides without gravity adding more force. It works really well when I have two pillows on either side of my body, so I can assume the same shape I prefer on my side, just sunny side up.<\/p>\n

If you are considering tackling this big change for the sake of your face and your shoulders, this pillow is helpful. Is it necessary? No. But when I see it on my bed each night, it\u2019s a reminder to keep trying, and a reminder that so much of why I can\u2019t sleep on my back is because it feels vulnerable.<\/p>\n

3. Casper Original Pillow Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This pillow from Casper<\/a> is definitely a favorite\u2014and it\u2019s held its shape really well in the months I\u2019ve been testing it. I have had pillows go flat on me within the first couple of months. After nearly four months of use, this one has the same bounce and density it had right out of the box.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I purchased a double pack of the king pillow size in the mid-loft height. What I like about this pillow is that it supports my neck all while being lightweight and easy to move around. For people who move a lot at night, this type of agility is important. It also has enough spring to it that it offers a cozy \u201csoft\u201d feeling without a lack of support. I get why this was recommended to me by so many side sleepers.<\/p>\n

However, in my opinion, this pillow is NOT for someone who likes to sleep on their stomach. It just won\u2019t get flat enough no matter how often you punch it down. For this reason, it was not Joe\u2019s favorite (he\u2019s a tried and true stomach sleeper).<\/p>\n

\n

4. NIGHT Signature Pillow Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This pillow from NIGHT<\/a> was first recommended to me by @themakerista<\/a>. As it turns out, it\u2019s the pillow I didn\u2019t know I was looking for. <\/p>\n

It is soft but still supportive and the silk fabric is delightful. I find it really comfortable when I\u2019m trying to sleep on my back (still a work in progress). It is GREAT for stomach sleepers as well, especially because the silk pillowcase won\u2019t leave creases on your face. While I\u2019m not using this pillow on our bed right now, it\u2019s still one of my favorites.<\/p>\n

\n

5. Avocado Green Pillow Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re really picky about getting the amount of stuffing just right, this Avocado pillow<\/a> is the route to go. My kids have Avocado pillows and during one of my bed swaps with our daughter, I found myself waking up refreshed, despite having slept in her bed and not my own.<\/p>\n

These pillows come well stuffed but you could remove \u2153-\u00bd of the stuffing if you sleep on your stomach and are seeking a flatter pillow. I think they are a bit dense and heavy for my liking on a nightly basis. Yet I don\u2019t wake up much when sleeping on them, which says a lot.<\/p>\n

\n

6. Coop Premium Eden Pillow Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

In my opinion, this pillow from Coop<\/a> is fine, although it happens to be Joe\u2019s favorite. It did smell a little when I opened it, and while it does offer the option of adjustable stuffing, I found it required a lot of tweaking to get the right stuffing amount. I personally would go with Avocado before Coop. I think the materials inside are better and they\u2019ve held up better over time than our Coop pillows.<\/p>\n

7. WonderSleep\u00a0Comfort Pillow Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Truth be told, I hated this pillow<\/a>. Its weight was SO HEAVY, it felt like moving a body in the middle of the night. It also had a bit of a scent when it arrived. I tried it for two nights and slept terribly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
