Holly’s Happenings

It’s been a little while since I’ve talked about my WONDERFUL memory foam bed, so I thought I’d give you a few updates. As you know from this post, my new bed arrived safe and sound on February 5th. It just so happened that my daughter was home from school that day, so between she and I we were able to tear my old bed down and get my new one set up! Set up for my PacDown Plus mattress and foundation was actually very easy. The instructions for the foundation were simple and easy to follow and we were both laughing over how small the memory foam mattress was in it’s packaging compared to the actual size of it once it came out of it’s packaging!

I’m not going to tell you that going from a standard inner spring mattress to my Bed In A Box memory foam mattress was an easy adjustment. It took a few nights before my body finally adjusted to sleeping on this wonderful mattress. I will tell you, however, that the pain I normally feel in my back and hips when I wake up in the morning, diminished almost immediately from the first morning I woke up! And after almost 2 months of sleeping on my PacDown Plus memory foam mattress, I experience virtually none of the normal aches and pains that I have always had when I wake up in the mornings!

This wonderful bed has completely changed my life! No longer do I spend days dealing with severe back pain from the moment I wake up, nor do I wake up in the morning feeling tired. Instead I wake up pain free and rested! I may not always get the amount of hours of sleep that I should, but I’m now getting a much better quality of sleep than I EVER have before!

So my heartfelt thanks go out to BedInABox.com for allowing me to have such a wonderful product!

Good morning!  I figured I’d come in here and update you about our first night sleeping on our wonderful memory foam bed from BedInABox.com.  I had been told by a couple of people that I knwo that have memory foam mattresses that it would be a pretty major adjustment after sleeping on nothing other than inner spring mattresses all of my life.  Not that it’s a bad thing, just that memory foam mattresses are completely different.

The initial comfort factor is just AMAZING!  No matter what position you lie in you just feel completely supported!  After going through the “OOOOOOO and AHHHHHH” stage it was time to settle in and go to sleep!  It took no time at all and I was out cold!  I remember waking up a few times in the night, mostly because I was a little too warm.  But over all it was a very good nights sleep.  Even with the waking up part, I still feel more rested and like the quality of my sleep was better.  But, and yes there has to be a but, for the first time in the 16+ years that we have been together, I was snoring so loud that I woke my husband up….LMAO!  Now, the thing that makes that even funnier, I was sleeping on my stomach at the time…LOL!  He also had a night where he woke up several times, but he said that he didn’t have a difficult time falling back to sleep when he would wake up.  He also said that he did feel more rested this morning even with waking up a handful of times.

It’s definitely going to be something that is going to take some time getting adjusted to, but I do not foresee ever being able to sleep on anything else…LOL!  Of course, there will be times where I have to sleep somewhere other than my own bed, but here at home, from this day forward, I will ALWAYS sleep on a memory foam bed from BedInABox.com!  They have a top notch quality product at an amazing price, and to me you simply can’t go wrong with that!
