Hello, I have been reading your many posts and would like to know if you can help me decide what type (thickness, firmness) of latex topper to get. I currently have a new Simmons Beauty Rest World class plush firm mattress that seems to be too firm/hard. It is uncomfortable to sleep on my side - shoulders, hip, thigh ache sometime feel numbness. In the beginning, I was able to sleep on my back, okay, but not getting a good night rest. Now, it is very uncomfortable sleeping on my back, it feels just too plain hard. So I am hoping a latex topper would soften things up and relieve some of the pressure points so that I can sleep on my side and my back. Mostly, I gravitate to my side.  I am about 5'10" 153 1bs.

I was thinking a 2 inch 24 ILD latex topper would be sufficient, but based on some of the posting, I am getting concern about getting something too soft or squishy The comfort foam of the current mattress has 3/4 firm foam, 1 1/2" convoluted foam, 1 1/2" plush foam, and 5/8" visco foam. The innerspring has 960 coil count, 13 1/4 gauge.  Based on these specification, would 1 inch be sufficient? Is 24 ILD to soft?. I am thinking about purchasing from sleepinglikeabear.com.

Thanks, any help would be appreciated.
