Old Man Snoring

It's 3:25 am eastern time. I can't sleep because my guy actually snored so loud he woke not only me up, but the baby too. It's been like this all week. How have you broards survived sleeping with someone else for so long? At least I've finally trained him to never touch me when I'm sleeping. We just need a snoring solution now.

there have been many a sleepless night around here due to snoring. a lot of rib poking and yelling "roll over". there is no easy answer.

Snoring is the bane of my sleeping existence.

I have reached the point sometimes where I thinking longingly of Lucy and Ricky and their twin beds...

Or better yet, separate rooms.

Liz has me well trained!

I'm not to fall asleep on my back, and when I do, and start snoring, she gives me an elbow to the rib cage and I automatically mumble an apology and roll to one side or the other. It's been working fairly well.

poking him in the back with an elbow usually works, but i think he has some sort os sinus infection that's making it worse this week. maybe i should just move to the couch for awhile? i dunno, but i'm glad it isn't just me. misery loves company.

MusinexD might work. When Dennis snores sometimes, I swear he's rattling the shingles. My best solution, however, is to try to get to sleep before he does. That worked for 20 years-now he goes to bed at 10PM and I'm up until late because now I don't get sleepy or tired enough that early.

I wish you the best (earplugs might suffice).

going to bed first works for me. i let him snore in his chair.

Unknown said...

yup going to bed first has been my only solution as well... then if for some reason I wake up to the snore I just yell "stop snoring!" very sharply and that seems to interrupt his sleep enough long enough for me to get back to sleep... of course he claims I snore too, but how is that possible?
