Please help: Hip pain with Sleep on Latex

Good morning.
Unfortunately alot of people are in the same boat at you. We build a Hybrid with Talalay but by far our most popular is our Nirvana Mattress. We use 6" Talalay core. By doing this you get a slightly softer feel without sacrificing the support that layered latex can can. We can get away with a slightly soft ILD and keep the support. Even then, most people do a seperate latex pillowtop to really give you the pressure releif. I’m the same weight as your husband, so I “sink” through the pillowtop and fele the firmness of the mattress, while my wife “floats” more on the pillowtop.

I know split is out of the question with the kiddo (we sometimes have our two month old in the bed with us) but we can build a single mattress with one half firmer and one softer for a more customized sleep experiance foryou and your husband.

If you had further questions, please dont hesitate or stop by our showrrom in New Jersey.

As a lighter female sleeper I just cannot do all latex. It has this jello side to side jiggle and it pushes back in the wrong places

I have an all Talalay latex mattress I decided to make work. It’s actually lovely for me now with the right topper.

Your husband is heavy enough that he may be less picky than you overall so just get the topper for you. I have found that my heavier male partners did not need as much fine tuning.

What has worked best for me was a Molecule CopperWELL 3” memory foam topper, which ended up being a bit too much foam for me but if I was your build I would have kept it. I replaced it with a Serene polyfoam 2” topper.

I get the synthetic thing but maybe you can look for someone selling an open box topper so you at least aren’t contributing to eco waste. I’ve sold many of my toppers that were not returnable for very cheap. You can also look at liquidation outlets.
