Snoring

[A Party of Five]

I spent most of last night trying to get to sleep :sleeping:

However, it's like lying next to a pig with a loudhailer and I have given up.

Anyone else have a partner who snores. It's really bloody annoying. No amount of hard kicks make any noticeable difference. Bah!


You guessed it there is a POLL coming :p

[Milliner]

YES!


This is the reason why I wear ear plugs to bed every night!

[A Party of Five]

I can't wear ear plugs as the twins sleep in our room and I would be worried that I may not hear them if their woke up.

[mysonroger]

DH is an occasional snorer....if he has had a few drinks at a dinner party, for example. it drives me insane. but he knows the rules. he wants a few drinks = he has to, without arguement, sleep in the spare room. no ifs and buts.

[Noah_and_Elijah]

Sometimes but so am I at times... :o

[Ashleigh<3]

He snores occasionally.

It's the sleep talking that bothers me.

I would really like to know who the rabbits are.
And it's definitely not Aussie foot ball talk as he's not a fan.

[A Party of Five]

I swear my DH sniffs a beer cap and he snores all night!

Maybe he is trying to kept the rabbit out of China :laughing:

[prideNJoy]

yes, DF often asks me "where did this bruise come from?" :laughing: ;) It so annoying, i usually just give him a swift kick to the leg or push his shoulder so he rolls over.
I have to race him to sleep so i don't have to listen to him. I even recorded him snoring! He didn't believe me when i told him he snored.:sleeping:

Hee hee! You might be on to something! :o

[A Party of Five]

Well I'm so happy that I'm not the only one who has a DH that snores :yes: He does need to lose some weight I think not helping it either.

[declansmum]

OMG. My DH is the worse, he snores so loud you can here him at the back of the house:hair:

[Tls5431]

DH did, to the point that I would need to go to the spare bedroom to sleep. But he has lost a fair amount of weight recently and that has made everything better... I can sleep in our bed again. Yay

[SilverStarfish]

Nope, he doesn't snore.

I do :o When I'm sick, over tired or pregnant....

[Mahjong]

DH sometimes snores, only when he's sick or laying flat on his back. He often wakes himself up doing it :p

[missmaisy]

Bugger- i'm the snorer in our bed!I was going to start a new thread to see if any other mums are the culprits, and what to do!Doctor wants to send me for a sleep apnoa(sp) test, but even if that was it -what next?Oh, when i'm not sucking the walls in snoring, i can't sleep with repetitive sounds, even my husbands breathing annoys me (go figure!), and i wear those soft foam earplugs,and i still hear all my kids if they wake during the night, or you could only put one in, in the ear that's facing up,might block out some of the noise.Good luck

[~mia&ryan~]

No snorers here, unless you count the dog!!

[pinkishbunny]

My hubby and I hardly sleep in the same bed LOL what does that tell you?!?

He is a shocking snorer, worse when he's been drinking or if he's really tired! I don't put up with it anymore, If i know he's had a big night drinking i sleep in with Josh or on the spare matress..

I gave up age's ago trying the punching, pushing etc etc...It don't work! So we spend many night's sleeeping seperate!
Sometime's it better for me as I get a better sleep...

[SalTheGal]

:no: He doesn't snore......


But I do!! :o :p

Poor DH, is anyone suffers from lack of sleep in this house it tends to be him.

[Samaras Mummy]

He does sometimes... usually when he is really tired.

[perthmum2007]

He does but only if hes really tired. Im pretty sure I snore more then him though from what he tells me:laughing:

[chameleon]

No he doesn't snore but he sleep talks:rolleyes: Not all the time, just when I hop into bed he usually starts mumbling or telling me off for something. The other night he asked me what I was doing with that Glad-wrap, and the other night he yelled out, "Don't step there! The concrete is still wet!":laughing:

[spirited]

Hello friends never thought snoring can also be classified as a health problem, though having said that I do confess I am not sure why this occurs and as I have voted in the affirmative it can be easily assumed the nights are usually tormenting for me. Now having a look at this place am thinking of asking my partner to get a check up to evaluate the reason of this recurrent habit.

[A Party of Five]

Has anyone tired the nasal sprays? Which ones are any good?

Cause at the moment I am not getting much :sleeping:

[xpress2]

My DP only snores when he is really tired - Okay, so having a new baby in the house, it's been a bit more often lately... :laughing: But I've been tired myself, so it doesn't keep me awake....

I've also done the recording thing cause he didnt believe me! :D :yes:

[broncochik]

YES, and it drives me crazy.

[EskimoMumma]

Heres a tip..if say your twins occasionally sleep thru, u know they can sleep thru anything if they can do it to ur hubbys snoring!

Dp will have a SLIGHT snore if really tired.

apparantly i am the snorer..

[Amberlea]

My ex did and he was one of those hugely annoying people who was asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow... whereas I have insomnia :banghead:

I used to go to bed an hour before him to try and get to sleep before he did - no luck there!!!

I recommend duct tape - place it over his mouth and wrap it around the back of his head - secure with aryldite (sp) and some quick dry cement.
Then he will have no option but to breathe through his nose :D

I do try and go to bed before him but sometimes this does not work :no: I just lay there listen to him snore all night :sleeping:

I think I may have insomnia cause some night when I can't sleep I get up and do my house work and end up going to bed any where from 2 to 4 in the morning!

But I do like your idea of the duck tape and cement :laughing:

[bootiful]

hell yeah

my hubby snores so loud he keeps me up 5 out of 7 nights a week, i kick and punch and roll him over but he keeps on going

sometimes he snores so loud he chokes, or he holds his breath then wakes himself up and coughs

it drives me insane and i swore i would never marry a snorer (my dad snores like a truck) but god i love him :laughing:

now we got a new HUGE couch, i kick him out there :D

[RedPanda]

He snores when he's on his back. I poke him at least four times a night and snarl "Get on your side!".

[A Party of Five]

My DH does the same he snores, chokes and wakes himself up with a little bit of dribble running out of the corner of his mouth :laughing:

[mumzdaword]

Yep he snores.... but apparently i do too hehe... hopefully its louder than him. get some of his own medicine hehe

[defa]

My DH snores i am in the next room and i can hear him from here..lol
:hair:

[A Party of Five]

I do to when I am really tried :sleeping:

And he makes a big deal about cause I woke him up :rolleyes:

I should record him one night so he knows what he sounds like :laughing:

:detective: Does anyone else DH wake themselves up with their snoring?

Mine does :laughing:

[FunkyMonkey]

DF snores but not too badly, it's only intolerable when he's really tired. He still gets jabbed in the leg and told to lay on his side. He also drools. :barf:
I snore too, but only when I'm super tired or very pregnant. I've woken myself up snoring. :o

[cromeo]

mine snores too - I usually just push him over onto his side and he'll roll over. He doesn't even wake up!

And DS snores too when he's got a blocked nose so I have DS on my left in the cot and DH on the right. :hair:

Oh Cristina it must be very noise at your house how do you get any sleep :sleeping:

[Hokey Pokey]

He has been this week and it keeps me up until wee hours of the morning:banghead:

[Queen]

Oh yeah he is a snorer....but I am a kicker...so I win!!:devil6: :p

[youngones]

So much so that we generally sleep in separate rooms. He thinks it is a marital problem, I think it is a sanity problem. I get really shirty if I don't sleep at least 7 hours a night and with DH, I generally get around 3. It would be worth it to keep him happy if I could get by on less sleep, but I just can't.

Anybody got any things they've tried that have worked? I use 32 decibel foam earplugs, but they just seem to cut out all the other noise and let the snoring through. DH had a septoplasty (septum was crushed during his birth) a few years ago, but that didn't help - in fact it probably made it worse. It seems to help if he sleeps on two pillows, but he says it hurts his neck.

I'd like to rectify it for a number of reasons - holidays mean zero sleep and aren't much of a 'break' for me and I'm really over stripping, making and washing sheets for an extra bed every week. Besides, it gets just too easy to live 'separate' lives this way. I'd really like to be able to wake up next to him, but it just doesn't work that way for us...

[cromeo]

Oh Cristina it must be very noise at your house how do you get any sleep :sleeping:

I think I'm starting to get used to it now... Or maybe I'm just so sleep deprived my brain just shuts out the noise :D

It only really annoys the living **** out of me when I'm trying to put DS back to sleep at 2am and I've just settled him then DH has one of those big snorts (I have nooo idea how to explain the noise... ladies with snorer hubbies, you all know the one...) and DS wakes up. I usually just throw a pillow at DH :rolleyes: . What's more annoying is he wakes up and gives me this "what did I do?" look!!:hair:

[Threadkiller]

:hair: yes my husband snores sometimes, sometimes its louder then other nights, but a little nudge:rolleyes: for him to lie on his side usualy fixes the problem

[our3boys]
