Wedge Pillow Question

[JackieLee]

I'm wondering if the pressure might go down a tad, once you lie down on the wedge pillow giving the machine time to adjust, or is that just 'wishful thinking'?

When you first lie down the machine starts at your minimum pressure...or in some cases at your ramp setting.

Using a wedge pillow takes some serious getting used to, especially if you're naturally a side or stomach sleeper. It definitely helps with reflux or keeping airways clear, but waking up halfway down the bed because you've slid off it during the night is a constant battle.

Finding the right firmness and pairing it with a proper contour pillow to keep your neck from craning forward makes all the difference. Otherwise, the shoulder and lower back aches can outweigh the original benefits pretty quickly.

I only know of one wedge pillow that extends below the hips. All the others cause a bend at the stomach. This can make some matters worse.
