Full transparency: I hate being touched, nudged, brushed up against, or even breathed on while I sleep. And not because I'm dead inside, but because I'm sleeping. Why would I want to be disturbed while trying to rest just because that's what cute couples in rom-coms do? Spooning, though, is in a category of its own. Smashing your butt against your partner while they dump half of their bodyweight over your hips and shoulder all in the name of affection can be sweet, so long as the person whose ribcage is being depressed isn't trying to actually sleep. But even if I'm comfortable doing my part as small spoon, my partner will occasionally push me off of his arm because it's fallen asleep and he's lost the ability to feel his hand.
If this scenario (or pieces of it) sound familiar, you might want to get a Coodle Pillow ($65). Intended primarily for cuddling and spooning with your partner (pro tip: you can also use it alone!), there's a cushioned brace shaped in an arch so you can put your arm right underneath, eliminating any pressure from your partner's head. Prepare to spend the weekend sleeping!
