I am 15st male and I have a vango 5cm Sim. Under it I use one of the cheap foam roll mats with sliver lining that tescos used to sell mainly for extra insulation. I then drop that all on top of a picnic fold old rug thingy in the tent. I sleep on my side. I must say after a few hours my shoulder does start to feel the ground through it all. This usually then sees me semi consciously turning over onto my other side for a few more hours and rinse and repeat. I would say go for the biggest you can afford. I have tried 2 but found they slid around over night especially if move around a lot whilst asleep. I have tried airbeds but I find airbeds aggravate my back ( I have 2 damaged discs). The Sim gives me no backache at all and I have less back issues whilst camping than I do at home. Hope this helps
