ANYWAY, it's made a world of difference, in how I sleep! No more sore spots, from pressure. I got the thickest one, I could find and LOVE it! Give it a try, if you haven't already.
Neesie, how long ago did you get it? Do you find that it's hot? How well has it kept its shape?
The reason I'm asking is because when we replaced our bed about 5-6 years ago, we got a mattress that boasted a memory foam top. Man, I hate that thing - when I sleep on my tummy, I wake up super hot and sweating. It has developed 2 large divots in the spots where DH and I lay. When he's gone I try to sleep on the center hump to get it mashed back into shape.
