If you’ve visited an RV show recently, you may have noticed that some large RVs with queen-sized beds are decorated with a lot of pillows. Six or eight is not unusual, sometimes even more.
You may have wondered about all those pillows and assumed it was just for decoration. Or, could it be that some people do sleep with more than just a single pillow under their head?
A few friends and I happened upon this subject the other evening. I reported that I sleep with one pillow. But others reported they sleep with three or even four pillows, not necessarily under their head, but also in the bed itself in various areas.
Hence, this poll question. So, how many pillows do you normally sleep with? After you respond to the question, please leave a comment.
And again, if you are on a slow internet connection, it may take a moment for the poll to load, so please stand by.
Three, but they are not standard size. All are much smaller, and can be stuffed anywhere.
Two…one under my head and one between my knees to keep my hips inline..I have back problems and it helps immensely.
We have the My Pillow and they are the largest sizes as well. Not really happy with mine, as I wake up with a very sore ear with this pillow. Not sure if it is the little pieces of foam inside the pillow or not, but getting ready to buy another pillow to stopping this pain. Anyone else have this issue with these pillows?
is it the pillow or sheet quality ? I have noticed that the poor sheet quality creates a sore ear both inside the top flap of my ear or on the outside.
I have no problem with My Pillow.
I really enjoy My Pillow products, I have sheets, towels and pillows. Mike Lindell is a great American and success story, overcoming drug addiction and building a multi-million dollar company.
We have “My Pillow”s and have no problems with them. We love them. Ours are the standard size and we both sleep on our sides with an ear down. Could it be the pillow case fabric?
We have My Pillows at home and in the motorhome and also a RV king My Pillow mattress topper and have no issues with any of them. They do not advertise the RV king topper however if you call and give them the dimensions they will make it for you, they charged me the price of a regular queen topper. It transformed the so so RV mattress into an extremely comfortable sleeping experience.
Two, one under my head. Both behind me if somewhat sitting up to read.
Three. It’s been three for years with sleep apnea.
Do you use a cpap?
I use 1, DW uses 2 one to sleep on and one to hug up to. Lol
3 for me…1 thin one under my head, 1 against my back and a body pillow for my knees and snuggling
Tough to answer. Most of the time I use one pillow but very often I will use two. Some of it depends on my Bi-Pap machine.
One at home. We have a bed that you can raise the head and feet. Two in the RV because the bed is flat always.
None! Its my feeling that they upset the angle of the spine and throat. After thinking about that and keeping records of whether or not I woke up with pain I decided to abandon pillows and honestly feel better.
Still have the pillow on the bed because it looks better to my wife. Bedtime, it hits the floor.
I picked (2), one for my head and one for my old arthritic knees.
I go to sleep w/ 1, but frequently wake w/ none. It’s pushed aside. I still voted 1.
4, 2 kings one for back, one for front and two standard for head
i have my pillow and has her pillow from Kroger/ Fred Meyer. we both use one when going to sleep and 2 if reading.
4 total. One under my head, 2 thin one between my knees and one in front of me. Didn’t use to but Dr’s order when I had my C 5/6 Lamenectomy and fusion many years ago.
a posture pillow under my head and a large body pillow to seperate my knees, which is a major help with bursitis in my hips. and also helps to open my chest – sleeping on my side, I fold very tiny, so the body pillow is a help for both situations.
Me – one flat pillow. Husband – one big poofy pillow.
I only use one pillow, but my wife uses three. One under her head, one between her knees, and one under her left elbow.
I’m about like your wife, of late. Lived most my life as a single pillow dude, then the C-pap came along and learned I liked to have an second pillow to sorta wrap my arms around and bury my head (and mask) in. Next came arthritis and sciatica, with a third pillow to place between my knees.
Come soon, Sweet Jesus, before I run out of pillows!

Only one, but it is thin such that I can roll it up for 3 thicknesses or fold it in half for 2 thicknesses. My goal is to keep my spine straight in each sleeping position. And yes I adjust the pillow during the night as I move mostly without waking up!
One under my head and one covering my ears and eyes.
Just one and only the edge of it.
2 for my head/ shoulders, 1 between or under my left knee.
Hiatal hernia from hades with reflux. Got sick of wa-lking up to stained pillows and respiratory distress from aspiration.
