I have both gathered end and bridge hammocks but both cases I usually don't curl up on my side until early morning after my body has turned into Gumby. I have found that I don't sleep in a hammock the way I sleep in bed because there are less pressure points in a hammock. But my body needs to learn that. And it usually takes one night to re-learn after I've been away.
I' a side sleeper and have done so successfully in both my HH explorer and my DH roaming gnome. The gnome is longer and wider and is definitely more comfy...
I can successfully sleep on my side in my WBBB
For me and 11' hammock is essential to sleeping on my side. Extra width will also help. I bend the hips and knees in a slight fetal position and I find it very comfortable!
