Re: choosing a pillow
chiro-flow. water-filled pillow.
http://www.chiroflow.com/en/index.html I've had mine for about six years or so. I LOVE it. I take it with me everywhere. Got it from my old chiropractor - my new one sells them, too. My neck is a mess and tends to get jacked up occasionally, and I'm convinced a bad pillow can trigger that. I still have flare-ups now and then, but I do think this pillow helps. But also...the chiro would say stomach sleeping is a big no-no for your spine anyway oops - I missed your statement in the OP about being unable to have water-filled pillows. why is that, though?

Re: choosing a pillow
oh my. that sounds awful. I know the *amount* of water can and should be adjusted to what's comfortable for each individual...but I can see how after that experience, neither of you would want to experiment with the "right" amount. oy. good luck with your pillow hunt...

That's what I do - a fluffy one with a quilted pillow case/sham on top of my Tempur-pedic. Honestly, I think the pillowcase makes a real difference.

Re: choosing a pillow
I feel ya. Dh and I bought these fab double chambered down pillows (one chamber inside the other). They were $60 pillows on sale for $30 each - keep in mind, this was 12 years ago. They are still pretty decent. Dh went through a phase though where he was convinced there had to be a better pillow out there. Three pillows and $100+ later, he gave up and went back to his old feathered pillow.

Re: choosing a pillow
I have a latex pillow I have loved for years. I used to be so mad at my pillows. I would toss, turn, twist and fluff until I finally went to sleep. It all ended the year I found a latex pillow! They will last years and are great for allergies.

Re: choosing a pillow
We've had good luck with the Ralph Lauren pillows and with Shopko brand ones. We replace them every year or two.
