How you sleep can make such a huge impact on how you feel the next day, lack of sleep can make you tired, cranky and sometimes angry/sad and sleeping in a wrong position can leave you feeling sore. It is important to find a pillow that is just right for you! I am generally a side sleeper, or I sleep half on my side/half on my stomach, I had three different pillows I spelt with in various spots like one pulled in close to my chest to lean on while sleeping on my side.
Even with the three pillows I had, I was still having an issue with my left shoulder hurting when I woke up in the mornings and I joked with my husband that I needed a fourth pillow. Well, as luck would have it I got my wish and was gifted the Scrumptious side sleeper pillow from Honeydew Sleep Company. I wasn't sure how much it would help, but I was still excited to get the new pillow. I actually went to the chiropractor not that long ago as my shoulder issue had been going on and off for about three weeks, they said it was mostly soft tissue stiffness.
When my side sleeper pillow arrived, I couldn't wait to get it open! The little pamphlet they include is adorable, it is from the pillows point of view where it introduces itself and gives you a few care instructions before use as you need to let it inflate after it was vacuum packed into the box, and it is has any odor (most pillows do, this one was very very mild) you can wait it out or pop it into the dryer. I went with the dyer option and my pillow was ready in no time. The pillow case does have a zipper on it, however it is small and I haven't noticed it at all while I am sleeping.
I like the waffle type pattern on the outside of the pillow and love how the pillow is quite squishy yet firm at the same time. I was also gifted a pillow case to go with it which fit onto it without any issues and it is made from 100% bamboo so it is soft and light weight. The unique shape of this pillow allows you to sleep comfortably on your side as it tucks up under your chin and kind of caresses you. If you like sleeping with your arm up under your pillow this helps relief some of the pressure put onto your arm/shoulder area.
Holy cow! When I woke up the next morning after my first night using this I noticed a huge difference in my shoulder feeling better, now that I've slept on this pillow for the last week and a half my shoulder no longer hurts in the mornings when I wake up or any time during the day. This pillow is so comfortable to sleep on, my neck, shoulder and body feel supported when using this and I have no issue with it flattening out in the night. The pillow case is breathable, soft and feels nice on your skin.
It is no lie to say that I absolutely love this pillow. This pillow is so comfortable that even my husband loves it and pretty much tries to steal it from me nightly. I am very impressed with this pillow! I am down to sleeping with just two pillows now which is nice and opens some space up on the bed. I would eventually love to try out their body pillow too! They also have other pillow options depending on your personal preference.
