I cut up my memory foam pillow to fit. I downloaded Karen's pillow pattern on this forum and used it to cut the sides out of my favourite pillow. Works great!!! My quattro fits nicely into the cut outs. I am a side sleeper too and turn over a couple of times a night with no problems.

Morning
The red mark I had was more like a burn mark on my face from my ffm. I used some cotton and made a remzzz ( as shown on this forum) and voila no more burn mark.

Welcome Sean I am also a newby (1 month) and have been "tweaking" my set up ever since.

Lordvader, you get me a copy and I will make you one.
