I feel like I used to have a satisfactory layout for years but haven't since found a consistently comfortable arrangement. I like to have a fairly thick pillow or two under my head to accommodate my bad shoulder, a pillow between my thighs to avoid chafed skin, and a pillow for hugging - also mostly for my shoulder.

The head ones tend to get distorted really quickly and it's really difficult to find a good hugging pillow.

pillow under my head, pillow between my arms/elbows, and a pillow between my knees. 3 pillows total

I hate my knees touching when I sleep too! What pillow do you use for knees?

I don't know the brand and the tags have long since worn away, but personally I've found good luck with a "standard" size memory foam pillow. Memory foam tends to get too warm under my head but hasn't been an issue for a knee pillow.
