Breathe Right strips

So, over the past month or so, I have noticed that I have been constantly congested feeling. While I have NEVER been a snorer, according to DH, I have become one in the past month. Which, from what I have read is completely normal.

Poor DH is not getting much sleep these days because of my snoring, as wel as other outside noises. So, in my efforts to help, I bought some Breathe Right strips to help. They are suppose to help open up the nasal passages right. Well, they totally work!

I slept so good last night, and not a single snore. What a difference actually being able to breathe when I lay down. Anyway, if anyone else is having the same issue, you should give them a try.

    My husband snores, and I make him wear the strips.  For him, it takes his snoring down to "loud breathing".  I'm a weirdo where I need ABSOLUTE SILENCE to fall asleep, so I wear ear plugs on top of that!  If I go to bed before him, his snoring won't wake me, but it's a "fall asleep" issue I have.

    I'm guessing once the baby comes I'll be SO EXHAUSTED falling asleep won't be difficult, even if my husband is snoring!

    Oh I totally discovered those with my first pregnancy!!  This time, I think I started wearing them sometime around the end of the first trimester!  DH says I snore much less when I wear them.  Ya gotta get the off-brand at Wal-mart, much cheaper!

    I love these!  My favorite are the menthol ones where if you scratch them a bit you get the Vicks smell as well.  Really helps me and puts me to sleep in no time!

    I love the breathe right strips. I get a huge pack of them at Costco for a lot cheaper! The only issue that I have with them is that I'm sensitive to the adhesive, and when I wear them, my nose is red the whole next day. I'll deal with that though for some better breathing at night!
