yes, i agree with cemc.
when i first started sleeping on my back, i had a terrible time with my neck. then fell asleep one night without my pillows and things felt so much better.
bought very soft flat feather pillows for me and hubby. they don't prop the head up at all. just a soft cushion for the head and gently cradle the neck. they are perfect!
when i travel, i put one in my suitcase; i'd sleep with nothing else at this point!
as for the pillows under the legs; my physiatrists and PTs always recommended, but i found when my knees were too bent that that gave me hamstring tendonitis at the entheses behind the knees. now i just put them so my legs are kinda elevated slightly to give my pelvis a tilt and that seems to be the most comfortable for me.
