How many pillows do you sleep with? Do you have the pretty decorative ones on your bed?

I sleep with 2 pillows, although I always end up pushing one away, and scrunching up the other in half. And I'll switch through the night when my current pillow gets too hot, and the other one is cool. What is up with that?!?
 
I have three. None are decorative. But if one gets out of alignment, I'll have a headache/neckache for days. It stinks. I have to be careful not to move them or suffer the consequences.
 
Just one pillow for each of us. We have to remove 6 others from the bed to get to that one pillow.
 
Three and same as Kimberlee, I have to make sure they are in the right order. That doesn't count the body pillow or cuddle pillow at times. And occasionally a cat.
 
Tons and tons on my bed, including decorative ones, but I usually only like one soft squishy one to sleep on. And it definitely has to be cool and I will do the switcheroo in the middle of the night sometimes too or just flip it over!
 
We have 6 on the bed and each sleep on 2. One gets moved away and DH uses the other for his "cuddle pillow"
 
Just one for me - one of the shaped memory foam ones. Hubby has these 2 pitiful pieces of polyester that used to be 2 pillows in a previous life. I can not convince him to get rid of them.

When I was little, my parents redid an antique coach and replaced the goose feather cushions. All of us kids got new pillows stuffed from the down. I still have mine. I had to give it a new cover. However, I can't sleep with it any more as I need the support of the shaped pillows.
 
I have two pillows, one for the head and the other for wrapping my arms around when I sleep on my side. My husband also has two, but he layers his so that he is kind of elevated. No decorative pillows.
 
I sleep with two pillows. Jay sleeps with one, but he has two sleeping pillows. He uses two of them when he's watching his Kindle or phone in bed. Sometimes I take his extra to sleep with three. LOL

We also have two pillows that are in decorative shams, and then we have one large decorative pillow my mom monogrammed. Those three come off the bed at night.
 
3 decorative I remove and three left on the bed. Two are cool touch memory foam I switch between to keep my head cool, the other goes between my knees. Helps my arthritis, back and hips.
 
I am peculiar with pillows, I would take mine on a trip if it's even remotely possible. I have never come across a pillow that was up to my standards during a vacation so I always walk around with neck and shoulder pains. Ugh. Some of the pillows they give you, and in high end hotels as well!!

I have this pillow: which is just the right thickness and softness that works for me. There is a store in our town where you can borrow them for a week or so that you can proof-sleep on them and find out the best fit. They have a whole range of different colours/support.

Oh and no decorative pillows on my bed!! Where do you put them at night? I never understand this.

I've never heard of loaner pillows. Are they wrapped in plastic? Or are you sharing the same pillow that other people have used? Or are they washable? I've never found a washable pillow.

They are wrapped!!! Ugh!
Also you can completely take apart this pillow but just take out the neck roll and put it in the washing machine.

Interesting. It's about time to change out pillows in my house. I'll have to look at this.

I have 3 ! I sleep with 2 ... One goes on the floor (hubby laughs at me when he hears the thump of the pillow on the floor)... Then during the night when the pillow is hot I grab the one from the floor that is cool! Too funny re having hot pillow issues too!
 
I'm another one who switches to the cooler pillow during the night! Fortunately, pillow #2 no longer has to go under my knee as it did before knee surgery. Three got a little crowded...
 
I have 3 pillows I sleep with ... a great memory foam pillow for under my head, a soft squishy pillow that goes over my head (don't ask, I HAVE to have a pillow over my head to sleep, its an actual thing) AND a big, fat, squishy pillow that I cuddle.
