A little advice please from anyone who's replaced a mattress recently? I''m hoping not to choose the "The worst mattress ever possible". So if youre finding your mattress fantastic or absolutely useless would you please let me know? Maybe it's human nature, but I picked an unbranded memory foam mattress from one of the "jumped on the bandwagon" style of supplier. The only memory it has is that it goes flat and stays that way! π¨ I'm not having much luck, and I'm in danger of purchasing the wrong thing for DDD + SS, my back, hips and shoulders need some support!
Kind regards . Lynda
I have spine problems and find that starting with a fairly firm mattress is best. Then a layer of something soft - cheap option is an old duvet on the mattress under the sheet, or some other kind of soft topper pad - doesn't need to be thick or fancy, as its just to cushion the top a little.
The main thing to get comfortable once you have the mattress sorted, is an array of pillows, foam wedges, long body pillow, or microbead pillows (travel pillow type) that you can put around your body to support it. If lying on my back, it would be a thin pillow under my knees, and the microbead pillow under my neck (no other pillow under my head). If on my side, its a thin pillow between my knees, and a firm thick one to rest my arm on, with sometimes another fairly firm pillow behind my back.
