Do you have a foot board on your bed? Try moving yourself and pillows etc lower down so that your feet rest against the foot board. If no footboard you could wedge a chair at the bottom of the bed.
Many years ago in hospital I had a sandbag to stop me slipping down. I told a modern nurse this and she thought it was a brilliant idea. Worth a try.
Hello jasmine-1, have you thought about a wedge pillow? I bought one after my last stay in hospital with pneumonia, it was a bit too high at first and made my ribs hurt low down so I took my electric carving knife to it and cut it in half through the middle, although it made the cover baggy, I pinned that on a bit tighter and now it's brilliant, no sliding and really helps, I also pad it out with big soft lump pillows and a v pillow, my bed looks like flipping sultans boudoir, not a lot of room for my husband but never mind, he sleeps well anyway,
Hope this is helpful love, let us know how you get on

Wish I knew - I tried a V pillow and ended up under it!! I bought a wedge that has been more successful but I still find myself down the bed. I curl so jamming myself in with something at the bottom of the bed wouldn't work. Even in hospital with the electric beds I wriggle down. My favourite aid are the barrel travel pillows that are like mini beanbags as I squidge them under my head and don't tend to slide off them!!
Good luck!!
Why not get "elephants feet" to raise your bed instead of using pillows.
I have one of these metal back rests things - rather like half a deck chair
with another pillow or two on top I find it less slippery. Mine came
from physio dept when I came out of hospital but you can buy them.
Even a pillow at the foot of the bed will help with this - I have a divan with no footboard but the resistance of the pillow still seems to work.
Hi thanks for getting back to me hope you find out because it might help me when i go to bed because i slip down of all the pillows then i wake up not beginning able to breathe properly relax not really?
