Like sleeping on a cloud…
I recently got a new mattress/bed. My husband and I for three years used his brother’s old mattress. We finally decided it was time to get our own, brand new mattress - a GOOD one. I always wanted a new one but was kind of against it… I don’t like to spend money if it’s not 100% necessary. BUT, I gave in, and it was TOTALLY worth it!
We got a California King Sealy Posturepedic mattress. It is SO awesome! When you lay on it, it forms to your body, it is almost like sleeping on a cloud. I dont think it has actual springs like old mattresses have, but I’m not exactly sure how it works. All I know is it was pretty expensive, but worth it. I highly recommend getting a new GOOD mattress to anyone that hates their current mattress, has trouble sleeping, etc. IT’S WORTH IT!
I find myself waking up quite a few times during the night though. I think maybe I am subsconsciouly waking myself up during the night, just so I can feel how comfortable my bed is and so I can think about it and revel in it. Weird, I know.
Oh- something else I learned while purchasing a new mattress- the different between a King sized mattress and a California King is that a King is 16 inches wider than a Queen, but the same length, whereas the California Kind is 12 inches wider than a Queen, but 4 inches longer.
