    Sounds like classic apnea. I'd mention it to your ob/dr to monitor it. A sleep study would be performed probably to see how bad you have it, but I wonder if it will go away after LO is born.
    In memory of the angel babies that were too perfect for Earth.

    If the snoring is new during pregnancy, I'd mention the apnea to your doctor but wait and see what happens afterward, like a PP said. Once all of the swelling goes down, hopefully everything goes back to normal.
