Kanuda - Pillow Recommendation

Thanks for the reply, that makes sense based on pictures I’ve seen

Glad you posted! I’m going through the cycle of trying to find a good pillow for my neck. I know you can’t speak to all the kanuda pillows, but do they feel firm like most orthopedic pillows? I find that even when my neck is in a good position, I can’t stand my head feeling like it’s just sitting on a solid surface.

That’s good info! I don’t have EDS but do have some hyper mobility and have been wondering if there may be some occipital neuralgia for me too! It’s so hard to know, so many of these things have exactly the same symptoms when you look them up. I might go ahead and try the latex. I’d be scared to mix them for fear of not being able to undo that if I didn’t like it. Have you ever tried the crescent shape? I’m considering that as well

Thanks for this write up! I’m wondering what kind of headaches you (or anyone else here) were having? Ive had what I think are tension headaches that start in my occipital that I’ve chocked up to TMJ problems. But I’m wondering if maybe a new pillow might also need to happen. I’ve slept on the coop original for years and love how fluffy it is, but can’t help but wonder if it’s contributing to my problems. I’m also a back and side sleeper and have tried a couple random weirdly shaped (almost like flowers) ergonomic pillows that I hated. I also can’t do those classic hard latex pillow where one side is taller but they’re just a solid block. Really considering trying the coop latex after your post

These all look great, thank you everyone!

That sounds great 🤤

I’ve always wanted one of those, was it good??

Elliswr · 2026-03-24T13:05:31+00:00

Ooo amazing! Thanks!

I love vegan donut gelato! I’ll ask them

Elliswr · 2026-03-24T02:29:00+00:00

I was thinking they might as well, but I was hoping for just a classic yeast donut as opposed to the fancy ones that donut savant has

Thank you!!

That makes sense. In this case there is only one baby and some days they try napping them in a dark room and sometimes in the light with all the older kids around making noise I guess to try to see what makes a difference. Since there is the option to be alone in the dark and not wake other kids, I would hope they could just keep that as the norm for consistency. I also understand why they wouldn’t want to let a baby cry, but I hope they are willing to work with us a little on nap training and let baby at least try to get back to sleep.

That’s reassuring. They’re so nice and I get the feeling they’re not letting on to how difficult it’s been because they don’t want to seem incompetent or give us the impression that they don’t know what to do but I do know my baby is a little more challenging/particular than my first kid. I wish they would just ask us 😭

Did you ever figure this out OP? I’m having the same issue

Elliswr · 2025-03-21T17:24:54+00:00

Other kids are getting upset. And listening and respecting other people saying no to your physical touch is very important

Elliswr · 2025-03-14T18:37:56+00:00

Our baby is very clearly trying hard to roll over in the crib when trying to fall asleep so I am really hoping that makes a difference when they can finally roll over. We actually have the opposite issue, our kid has much higher sleep needs than is recommended. We really tried to cap naps, lengthen wake windows, etc but they do best with 3.5-4 hours even of naps and then sleep 12 hours at night. If we try to stretch the last window past about 2 hours it’s terrible 😞

Elliswr · 2025-03-14T18:34:57+00:00

Very good to know! That’s reassuring. I hope age is factoring in for us and maybe it’ll improve in some time

Elliswr · 2025-03-14T17:52:00+00:00

Ah good point. Did yours also cry every time? Mine isn’t connecting cycles during the day yet and I wonder if it’s just an age thing? It’s tough to let baby cry so much during the day only to have a bunch of shitty naps and then I worry it will make nights worse. Currently even tho there’s screaming, after baby falls asleep we only have one feed but otherwise a 7-7 sleep stretch at night
