You know I was just...pondering really...
How do you like to sleep? Do you sleep on your side or flat on your belly or back?

How fluffy do you like your pillow? If any pillow at all!

I always tend to sleep on my sides and I use my BOB as a pillow, aka suffed dolphin. He like, curves around my head perfectly! LOL.

So share you sleeping techniques! o uo

It honestly changes every single night, I try and start in the same position though. On the side, curled around my teddy bear. I usually can't stay like that, and I turn around, and I curl up and I stretch out before I can get comfy. My pillow is either soft and thick or a little stiff and slightly thinner.

When I'm at James's, I have to have my back up against the wall or against him. I either curl my arms around the balled up covers or around the teddy I gave to James 2 Valentines Day's ago.

I have a nice pillow I sleep with that I really like, of which I have no idea how to call them in English but they're slightly curved like this...


I nearly always sleep on my back, as if I sleep on my side I'd often wake up with my shoulders sore and a cramp in my neck. I never sleep on my stomach because it'd make me feel as though I'm suffocating myself. I don't used to, but for a while now I've been sleeping with my arms raised above my head. For some reason it feels more comfortable...even when it used to cramp my arms when I did that before.

I just roll around in bed, trying every possible position I can muster before I eventually tire myself out and fall asleep.
I need a new mattress, badly. D:
I like it when my pillows are extra fluffy though. I have four on my bed too, I like my head to be elevated.

I'm down to six pillows. I pile them all in a corner and sleep on them. I also have a body pillow that I like to cuddle with. My dog normally sleeps on top of my head and my cats normally sleep at my sides and at the foot of the bed. I have a twin bed so it gets quite crowded with the five cats on it. Luckily my dog is only 10lbs. XD I sleep on my side most of the time.

On my back, legs elevated.
But when I can be with my partner, always on the side cuddling. xD Snuggles are the greatest thing in the world. :angel:

I can't sleep in any other position unless I'm exhausted.

I either sleep in the fetus or soldier positions. Sometimes I'll cross my hands in front of the chest when sleeping in the soldier position but it makes my left arm go numb so I try to avoid it.

I went through a phase where I slept in the freefaller and starfish positions. Once in a while I'll wake up with my arms above my head, numb. I just pull them back down. :lol:

From the pics, I can say I sleep in three positions: fetus, freefaller or starfish. Usually fetus, but right now I'm not feeling so well so I sleep in the starfish position as to not stress out my stomach.

I think I'm usually sleepin like a fetus XD
But lately, that's been very uncomfortable, so I've been falling asleep on my back for a few nights now. It's better, but I seem to get less sleep and wake up easier =w=";;

Typically, depending on the temperature, I will sleep in: Freefaller, Starfish, or Foetus. Though, since I toss and turn in my sleep a fair amount, I tend to wake up in a half freefaller half yearner position(legs like freefaller, torso/arms yearner).

Of the positions in the picture, I generally fall asleep in the Fetus position. I'll wake up in either the Freefaller, the Fetus still, or in a position similar to the fetus, but with my top leg hiked way up like I'm kneeing someone.

From the picture I always sleep in my fetus position and then when I wake up it's in the starfish position. o.o; I'm always on my left in fetus position though, I can't sleep by the edge just yet. ^^;

Well, I think I normally go to sleep laying in the fetal position, but I how I wake up is always different. XD I can be at the bottom of my bed, laying on my stomach, laying on my back, curled in a corner, etc etc lol.

EDIT.
Scratch that. I've been going to sleep just about laying in the fetal position on my left side, but with my right leg straight and my torso twisted so my back touches the mattress.

Lately I've been sleeping on my stomach with one leg close to my chest and the other straight down. But I usually sleep in the fetal position.

I have to have 2 pillows every night, as I like my head elevated. I also like really heavy blankets, cold air, no noise (except for fans), and a soft mattress :heart:

I've been known to snore.

I will also admit that even though I'm turning 21, I have to sleep with this blankie I've had since I was a newborn. I refuse to give it up!

I sleep on my left side, with my dog curled up to the right of me. I don't think I move at all in my sleep, as I tend to wake up in the exact same position that I go to sleep in.
Before we got this dog (8 years ago), when I had the bed to myself (our old dogs were never allowed on the beds), I'd move around all the time, and go from one side of bed to the other, but since we've had him, I'm a less restless sleeper.
I can not sleep on my back or on my stomach, sleeping on stomach's just plain uncomfortable for me (although if I want to take a really short nap, on my stomach's the best way, as after about 20 minutes I no longer want to lie in that position, and get up), and sleeping on my back just feels odd. I tend to stare at the ceiling and think instead of switching off and sleeping.

I usually sleep on my back with one or two pillows.I always have to make sure that my Grimmjow plush toy is right next to me.My brother's cat usually sleeps above my head.Sometimes I have to sleep with one foot under the covers,but that depends on the temperture.

I'm mostly a fetal position sleeper. I've been told something called the military crawl position is good because you can't move while you're in it, making it less likely to...fall out of bed?? Not sure about it. I've tried it but it's not that comfortable.

I usually start off laying in the fetus position, switching sides while trying to get comfy. It takes me awhile to fall asleep but when I feel the z's coming I turn and lay on my back (soldier). Otherwise my arms will be swore or numb when I wake up. Sometimes I'll still turn and lay on my arms/hands in my sleep. I can't sleep well at all without two pillows. I like having one firm pillow and one fluffy pillow.

I usually sleep on my back with my arms under my pillow (and hanging off the bed, if I can). So, I guess starfish, yearner and foetus? xDD
I like firm pillows, I really don't like soft ones.
Same about beds. I like firm, with a little bit of a plush top, so you don't feel springs or anything.

I can't sleep without a blanket or a sheet of some sort covering me either. And it has to cover my feet too or it drives me batshit crazy.

I ALWAYS sleep on my side. But if I'm on my period, I mysteriously wake up on my back...and they say it's better to sleep on your side when you're on your period. I try to sleep on my back when I have a cold, but that never turns out good. I usually sleep curled up. I can't sleep without heavy blankets, so when possible, my room is always cold at night. Lately, I've found that sleeping with one of my pillows by my face like a stuffed animal, on the side I'm turned towards, is really comfortable. But then usually, my pillows are arranged across my full-mattress bed is I have two pillows beside each other and then a pillow on top in the middle. I like the feeling of security when I sleep. Simple as that. I like my head resting on a mound of pillows that's not thin, but not too thick, y'know? I have a think pillow beneath a medium-thick pillow.

;x I sleep on my side in the "fetal" position most of the time, always having arms near my body.
So that says a bit about my personality, seeing as to how I can be caring but sometimes introverted,
since I end up rolling onto my back in the middle of the night and sometimes end up sleeping in the
"death" pose. I enjoy having two pillows, one underneath and one over my head. It's weird sleeping
without the blanket or pillow over my head. :'D
