A topper can help if the mattress is supportive but just slightly too firm. But do not use a topper to convince yourself to keep a mattress that clearly does not work. The return window exists for a reason.
How do you know if a mattress is too firm or if your body just needs time to adjust?

I bought a new mattress and the first few nights felt uncomfortable. I’m not sure if I should return it or give it more time.

Answers & Discussion
If you are waking with numb arms, sharp hip pain or shoulder pressure that does not improve, it may truly be too firm. Adjustment is one thing; consistent pressure pain is another.
I try to give a mattress at least two weeks unless the pain is severe. Your body can react to any change, especially if your old mattress was sagging. Mine felt too firm for a week and then became comfortable.
