My poor poor hubby

IceCreamSocialiteIceCreamSocialite member
in March 2014 Moms
I've been snoring like crazy since I've been pregnant and I know it's driving him crazy, but he's been so kind about it. The snoring makes me feel like even more of monster than I already do as I grow bigger and more demanding of care (not in a bitchy way, just in terms of being able to do stuff for myself).

I tried those breathing strips last night and the first thing he said this morning was, "The strips didn't work."

Anyone having this same issue and have a good snoring solution?

    Apparently I'm having the same issue, haha! My husband has been wearing ear plugs and we keep a fan on in the corner of the room to drown out some of the noise.

    He won't wear earplugs or let me sleep on the couch (it's SO comfy! Honestly.) because he wants to be #1 hubby, and soldier on, or something. I just wish he'd admit defeat.

    Maybe eventually it'll become a comforting "white noise" for him.. :)  

    If you sleep slightly elevated would that help?

    I snore, but DH does too! He told me to roll over a few nights ago and I told him to go to hell. Where am I going to roll to, I have a belly that prevents me from sleeping on my stomach and I am already on my side! Sleeping on my back isn't going to make the snoring any better. He also invested in some ear plugs, and I haven't heard any more complaints.

    Maybe you can buy your DH some earplugs the next time you are at the store and play the sympathetic wife card...if he wants to be #1 hubby you can be #1 wife and take care of him!

    I third the humidifier suggestion. I'm about to break mine out. I woke up with a bloody nose so I know my air is super dry and I'm snoring.

    I've started taking Clartin b/c I seem to have developed allergies. This helps w/ some of my nighttime congestion...... Not necessarily snoring! :)

    I have the same issue and wish my husband would let me sleep in the guest room, but he won't have it.  I got a humidifier but it doesn't do much.  I'm apparently sleep farting too, I thought my husband was joking when he said I was doing it, but I woke myself up 3 times the other night with my farts.  Poor guy.

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one with this problem!!! I've finally convinced DH to sleep in the guest room. He'll lay with me for awhile and snuggle/watch TV until I fall asleep, and then go to the other room. I hate not having him with me, but between the snoring and constant getting up to pee, I know I'm not getting a good nights sleep. I want him to have one while he can, at least!!

    Have you considered a white noise machine? A good one can drown out a lot of background noises.

    My hubby has to go sleep in our guest room!  You could try saline mist, but nothing helps me :/

    I also suggest a humidifier! That has stopped mine!

    I have the same problem as well.  My DH just pats me gently on the side and asks me to roll over.

    poor thing! I agree with the PP suggestion of sleeping slightly elevated. If you change your head/neck position it might open up your airway a bit more. Maybe try a pillow that is a different shape or one of those triangular foam things that let you sit up a bit in bed.
