I am about to order a latex mattress topper which i hope will help with the problem we have with our older, too firm, latex mattress.
I’m getting morning backaches. I think it’s because this old mattress has become too firm after ten years of use.
Which thickness should I get, 2" or 3" ?
Would it make much difference?

Thanks for any advice.

Hi there! Are you a side sleeper, back sleeper or stomach sleeper?

If you’re a stomach sleeper, I think a 2" topper would be wise. A 3" topper could allow you to sink in too deeply and put strain on your lower back or neck.

If you’re a side sleeper, 3" will provide the most cushion for your shoulders and hips.

If you’re a back sleeper, you could probably go either way and be okay.

Best of luck! I hope you find a topper that helps you sleep well.
