FFM & stomach sleeper having trouble, help!
I have a FFM (Quattro Air XS) and am basically a stomach sleeper. I have a CPAP pillow (Contour CPAP Pillow High Profile) and I thought it was the one I used at the sleep study. But now I am wondering if it was a different one, since I am having such trouble with it. Since the other brand is $60, I don't want to buy another one 'just incase' it works better. So, I could use some tips on how you actually get comfortable with one of these things! I sleep with a body pillow but in order to keep my face off the pillow enuf so that the mask doesn't put too much pressure on my face I have to also sleep on my arm folded up which causes trouble and which I cannot continue to do this. I have tried more pillows to prop me up but that didn't work either. Are there any other FFM people who are stomach sleepers and how do you actually sleep?

Trial and error -- and/or try to sleep more on your side or train yourself to sleep on your back.
Use pillows to help sleep more on your side.
