The ‘Spoon’

Spooning is one of the best and most fun cuddle positions. You can be the ‘big spoon’ if you want but it is generally the person who’s taller. When you’re spooning with your partner, you both lie by your sides. The big spoon wraps their hand around their partner’s waist and rests their stomach against their back.

The Half Spoon

The ‘half spoon’ is the position that is generally used when you and your partner are just want to sleep peacefully or have a light-hearted conversation. If you are wondering how to cuddle in the ‘half spoon’ position, then it is pretty simple. One person lays straight on their back while their partner lies on their side and use their partner’s arms as a pillow. It’s the best position if you want to cuddle but not feel claustrophobic by leaving no space in between your bodies.

In this position, both the partners lie while facing each other and sleep in a hugging position. The limbs, legs, and arms and entwined throughout.

This position is similar to the half spoon position. One of the partners lies on their back while the other use their chest as their pillow. While their head rests on their partner’s body, their entire body is at a distance. It’s quite a nurturing position and one of the sweetest ways to cuddle.

The Leg Hug

Just like the back to back cuddle position, the leg hug cuddle position is also meant for couples who like to keep their distance and not get extremely touchy. Taking a step further, in the leg hug cuddle position, the couple lie either on their backs or torso separately and only their legs are entwined.
