I'm glad I kept my commitment, it went a lot better last night.
My original thought that led me to not wanting a pillow was that it would push my head too far forward, but after having a horrible night's sleep and pain in the morning, I decided to adjust. Last night I used the flattest pillow we had to lay my head on.
It felt A TON better. During Night 1, along with the pain and muscle tightness on the right side of my head and neck, the back of my head had a strange “buzzing” sensation. It felt like something weird was going on with my circulation. Putting the pillow under my head alleviated that feeling.
I fell asleep rather quickly and the couple times I woke up during the night, I may have shifted slightly to one side, but was still mostly on my back.
I woke up this morning feeling good. No pain, no headache. I wonder if part of the better rest was that I went to bed at 1:30 last night, vs. 10:30 on Night 1. We'll see.
