If it is really bad, I would have him go to the doctor. About a year and a half ago we struggled with this with DH's snoring. It turns out he has severe sleep apnea and needs to sleep with a machine which helps 110%, for both of us.

When you figure it out, please let me know!!!!!!!!

Usually, what I do, if it gets bad, I'll say Shhhhhhhh or "turn over". Chat Icon

Once he goes on his side, he's so much better, but its when he lies on his back thats a problem.

I also notice he snores more in the winter when the air in the room is more dry...............When the A/C is on in the summer, he does it alot less.

Possibly a humidifier could work?

Sleeping on their back is the worst for it, I know that. There is a new mouth rinse on the market, did you try it? Also, he may have sleep apnea and need a CPAP machine, he may want to have a sleep study to diagnose.

Ugh- same problem here. It sounds like a Mack truck driving through the bedroom. I've heard that a pillow tightly over the face works well, so I'm tempted to try that.... Chat Icon

Re: Does anybody know how to stop someone from snoring?

I was the snorer in my relationship-so bad it would make DH crazy and exhausted since he would be up all night trying to make me stop. I went to an ENT, had a sleep study-I didn't have sleep apnea but a bad deviated septum that was pretyy much occluding one of my nostrils. I had a septoplasty last year to fix it-pretty minor outpatient surgery and it worked so well-I breathe so much easier too.
I still occasioanally snore, but not as loud when the air is dry, like now in the house but we are going to try a humidifier to see if that helps.

I totally agree with this.

My sleep apnea was because of my obesity. As soon as I lost weight, it went away but it was very dangerous. Please have him see a doctor!!

Re: Does anybody know how to stop someone from snoring?

I don't know how to stop him but I wear earplugs because my husband breathes so heavily....like I'm sleeping next to Darth Vadar. The earplugs help so much.

I fully agree. My DH has a CPAP machine that he sleeps with everynight making it possible for me to sleep. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Nothing works on my DH but a swift punch to his side. Most nights I sleep on my recliner. We tried nasal spray, breathe right...Chat Icon

Re: Does anybody know how to stop someone from snoring?

I'd look into him getting a sleep study at the hospital.

DH snored terribly, and it really put a strain on us the first year we were married. turned out he has sleep apnea and wears the mask every night, and we're all a lot happier. Chat Icon

the dry air could be a factor too, and the humidifier might not be a bad idea.

good luck!! Chat Icon
