I have a similar set-up, except the pillow that goes between my knees is long enough to also hug and then I usually arrange a corner of my blanket on top for extra height.

When it comes to the pillow I rest my head on, I've found that the best possible filling is little memory foam cylinders for some reason. Not shredded memory foam, which I've also tried, but cylinders. They're about the size of a finger except thicker, and make the pillow very adjustable - a concept that I always thought should make no sense since memory foam is supposed to keep its shape, and yet I've never had a better pillow.

Buckwheat pillow. Nice and firm, cool, and malleable.

I punch out a divot for my head so it has kind of a neck roll when I sleep on my back, or if I'm reading on my side, I punch a divot for my ear so it's not squished against my head.

Had it for like 15 years, I miss it whenever we visit my in-laws in another city.

Just an ordinary rectangular pillow. Contrast with European square pillows, which are way too big. It's served me well for the past 20+ years (yes, the same pillow) as a side sleeper.

One hard pillow as I sleep on my side and need the neck support. And then one bean bag tube type thing to rest my wrist on so that my arm doesn't have to be entirely horizontal—more comfortable that way.

I just use the duvet to go between my thighs/knees.

This is gonna sound stupid but I have a collapsed pillow that's like 10+ years old and I love it

I am sleep on my belly but slightly to the side, I have firm memory foam pillows that isn't too high for my head. The second pillow is between my legs with one going under and the other over to support the leg on the side I am facing. I used to hug a third pillow but currently hug plushies.

I'm a freefall sleeper so even no pillow works, otherwise a pilloe has to be flat and manoeuvred under my chest to stop my neck bending.

Freefall sleepers may have a slightly lower life expectancy but I'm like 'meh'. Sleeping is nearly half my life.

Either no pillow or the flattest firmest one in the house under my head.

A good foam pillow under my head, a bit of my blanket between my knees. Sometimes I think about getting one of those knee pillows but so far I haven't bothered.

I won't go back to a down-filled pillow. Those will inevitably stop supporting my head during the night.

Three pillows. One thicker one leaned up against the headboard at a very slight angle, almost vertical. Then two thinner pillows, first one at what would be a 45 degree angle overlapping the thick pillow, then the final one overlapping that one.

Only way I have been able to find comfort in pillows in the last 5 years or so

pillow under my head, pillow between my arms/elbows, and a pillow between my knees. 3 pillows total

I use a bath towel folded twice the short way. Nice and flat for back sleeping. I can make it thicker for side sleeping by folding the end under as needed when I roll over. But I use a CPAP so I don't roll much at all.

Two thin pillows stacked and oriented vertically. Thinness is key because they're easy to fold or roll to "make" pillows of various shapes and thicknesses, to support whatever position I feel like lying in.

An adjustable, removable fill, cutout, side sleep pillow. https://a.co/d/aXcI4Wx

I’ve even bought one for my step mom. The brand is amazing, and removable fill is the way to go.

3 pillows, one in the middle that's lower and 2 on the sides to keep my giant head from shifting too much to one side so my neck isn't put under pressure.

I feel so boring now. One normal pillow and one memory foam beside each other for sleeping on my side or stomach

The best hugging pillow I ever had was a ridiculously large plushie, because the fill density was different. I haven't figured out the head pillow yet, because sometimes as a side sleeper I try to hug those, too. I've mostly landed on ignoring the shaped memory foam pillows, because even if it says "for side sleepers" it usually feels better using as a traditional sleeper
