I don't move much either. If I'm in the same position for too long then I start to feel it and wake up. I have a special small pillow now, one that fits in between my legs like a wedge when I'm on my side; it's very soft and is made of the same materials as a Tempur mattress. It keeps my knees from touching. Before that it was regular pillows and it wasn't all that great. It still isn't but it's an improvement. I move at least three times a night, one side, the other, my back.
