Hmmmm...today seems to be the day to want to kill husbands...

So, apparently I've started making "noises" in my sleep - kind of like a whine.  I think it has a lot to do with this little guy jabbing his butt into my lungs.  Well, every single time (or it feels like it anyways) I started making this noise last night, my husband jabbed me and woke me up.  I get it - he wasn't getting much sleep either because I was keeping him up, but seriously, I almost killed him. 
I've put up with his snoring for over 7 years.  I wear ear plugs all night, every night because of his snoring.  The only time I ever kick him to wake him up for his snoring is if he's facing me and trying to cuddle - I'll kick him to get him to roll over so that at least the sound is going away from me. 
Let's just say it's going to be a LONG day at work today!  Good thing it's a long weekend!

  • Looks like it's time for him to get up and move to the couch or another room if he can't handle it.

  • I've taken up the art of snoring over the past few weeks. According to DH, I have a "Devil Snore" and a "Thunder Snore" among many other variations. He wakes me up enough to get me to roll over and I've just gotten used to it. I feel badly for waking him up, but what can you do? He tells me he hates to wake me up and lets me go for a while but then he's worried I'm not really breathing right.

     

    Regardless, I do want to stangle him sometimes for waking me up. :)

  • Both of my pregnancies it was impossible for SO to sleep next to me in the last Tri. Between bathroom breaks, my snoogle and sometimes wheezing from asthma I would keep him awake all night. He is nice enough to sleep on the couch. Tell DH it's important you get your sleep now. If the noise is bothering him that much the couch won't kill him for a few weeks.

     Or you could just go ahead and kill him!!! lol  I just don't get why he's so abrupt when he wakes you up.  He can't gently shake you and ask if you're having a bad dream or something? Geez at least fake some sensitivity!!!  Kudos to you for putting up with his snoring all this time.  Maybe you should get him some earplugs or tell him to hit the couch.  It's hard enough for you to get good sleep as it is without the physical assault! lol  Good luck!

  • I've been doing this too - snoring when I breathe in and humming when I breathe out.  It has been keeping me awake, not just my husband!  The drooling that came along with has been like a stream across my pillow.  He has spent a few nights on the couch, but I don't really want to displace him because he has a cpap (and he'd have to move the bed to move the machine).

  • This would piss me off too!  My H snores from time to time and lately my way to "handle" it is to get up and go to the bathroom b/c it usually disturbs him enough that he'll change positions. 

    Time to start slipping some sleeping pills into your H's drink at dinner.  Then he'll be so knocked out he won't hear your little noises!! Stick out tongue

    This!  Luckily, whatever noises I may make while sleeping, my DH snores are loud enough to cover them up! 

  • My DH wakes me up to roll over or whatever when I snore/snort. But, for some reason it has never dawned on HIM to go sleep on the couch. I have been sleeping on the couch for the past 3 months!

    I move to the couch b/c it is easier than having him wake me up every 5 minutes, and he's mad when he wakes me up. "You are STILL snoring!"  I get so frustrated that I cry, and that makes it worse.

    I don't currently have a job (just growing a person), so lucky me gets to go to the couch.

  • I specifically said to DH on my way to bed last night, "...and don't wake me up with any of your bull$#it!"  Like, if my restless legs are twitching too much he'll give me a shake, or something like that.
