Wondering if some of you can give me some feedback on your experience of adding a talalay latext topper topper to a too firm matress.  My situation is that I just bought a Simmons Beautyrest Recharge firm matress 1 1/2 months ago and am finding it a little bit too firm.  I'm experiencing some pressure point pain (a little) and lower spine pain when I sleep on my side because I think my hips are not sinking in enough.  I'm mostly a side sleeper and some stomach as well.  I'm a 6'2 male, 235lbs.  I as looking at purchasing the 3" 24 ILD talalay latext topper from Brooklyn Bedding.  My concern here is if this would be too soft for my weight?  How do you decide the thickness of the topper/comfort layer vs the ILD rating?   I assume the ILD rating is more critcal to get right based on the distribution of your body weight and body shape so that you get the best support overall?  Is there anyone else with similar weight that can chime in?

thanks
