Snoring

[crunchiesmum]

Other than hitting them until they wake up, what is the best way to prevent snoring?

[ummmm]

Nytol in their tea/coffee...and leave them asleep on the sofa :-)

earplugs for the person whos next to the snorer its the only thing that works for me and my partner.

refer to GP, after putting up with this for years, they discovered my other half suffered from sleep aponea ! he now sleeps with a special mask on attached to a machine which thankfully is silent and we both get a good nights sleep.Also there are several products on the market that claim to stop snoring, I once tried sleeping in the spare room but I could still hear the snores especially if he had been drinking.

I agree with Dee Sa.

[zzxxee]

must be uncomfortable to wear, i would imagine as the mask is rigged up to a machine.What if you turn over in your sleep?.

[zzxxee]

my other half has tried most products as well pinki.
As you say they are not that good.

Roll them on to their side or say 'sssshhhh' loudly.

I apparently only snore when either a. I am on my back or b. I am drunk.

[China Doll]

Same here jd. Also when I have a cold.

in reply to the sleep aponea machine being uncomfortable it doent seem to worry him and he gets a much better sleep and no more sore throat in the morning, the machine itself is silent, doesnt keep me awake. Also before, if he got the chance he would "nod off" during the day as he used to wake up tired , this doesnt happen anymore. He does have to attend the sleep aponea clinic every six months, the machine is free but the hospital engineers have to give a maintenance check annually but this is done the same time as your clinic appt.
