This is a classic snuggling position that most people know how to do instinctively. It lets the big spoon feel like a protector, while the little spoon gets to feel loved and cared for. Typically, whoever is taller will be big spoon and whoever is shorter will be little spoon. Feel free to mix it up however you’d like, though!

This snuggling position gives the feeling of being cradled and held, which can be very soothing.

This is a great position to choose if you want to chat before bed or you feel like giving your partner a few kisses.

This position is ideal for anyone who gets warm under the blankets, since your legs are free.

If you like snuggling but you need your space in order to fall asleep, this is the cuddling position for you.

This snuggle position increases intimacy and can strengthen the bond between you two.

You may need to adjust if your leg or your partner’s leg gets uncomfortable (but that’s a problem for later).

Feel free to play with your partner’s hair or rub their head while they’re in your lap (as long as they’re okay with that, of course).

Snuggling in this position will give you a sense of security and calm.
