h beath right strips work GREAT or adult/child. He should not have any issue wearing one. If he does tell him he's cut off until he does! LOL Good luck!!

Hi M. J,
Several of my friends have had problems with snoring spouses..some have been simply weight gain and lack of exercise, but one happened to be a case of sleep apnea, and another was due to a thyroid issue.Might be worth a trip to the dr. to find out?

try a cool mist humidifier, that may help.

My husband snore really really bad when he quiet smoking it got a little better. If we go out & he has a couple of beers it gets bad again.
I checked the drug store there are many different things that mayhelp. The breath right strips did not help.
I do believe if it gets really bad, and he sounds like he stops breathing, as my husband does sometimes a trip to the doc is not a bad idea. My husband refuses to believe that he snores that bad, until we recorded him.

See your doctor! Have him see the doctor. They can do a sleep study test, try some meds, sometimes it's a breathing issue that causes snoring. Talk to your doctor.

None of the over the counter stuff worked for my husband. Just this past week, we got a cool mist humidifier, it's been much better. he's also lost 15 lbs. in Jan. So that combo seems to be working! Over the past few years, the heavier he got, the worse it got.

I have the same problem! And we tried everything over the counter for him and none of it worked. So through his dentist we had an appliance made, but he hated wearing it so quit wearing it! I suffer every night! And I'm 35 weeks pregnant right now and up and down through the night going to the bathroom and sometimes just have the hardest time falling back asleep because of his snoring! I feel your pain!

I was reading other responses and most of them said try a cool mist humidifer. I will be trying that myself! I would also have him (if he would go) try and see his doctor too. And maybe do a sleep apnea test. It may encourage him after he finds out the results of the test to try and change and get an appliance made!

Good luck!

I asked for help on this one myself a bit back and tried some of the over counter solutions. Rather we bought them but hubby still seldom uses them. My solution is to wake him up, shove his head sideways and hope he stops. He thinks Vicks help him. So he puts a little in his nose after I wake himup a coule of times. You think that would bother him. He really should go to the doctor but he won't. It really is aggravating and I love sleeping in the same bed with him so I haven't slept elsewhere. I use earplugs, they sort of help. These are the same earplugs that the guys use to block out machinery noises of high intensity. Just goes to show how loud he snores. Oh my I wish I could help. I can't figure out why snoring bothers me so much when the noises outside don't seem to. It's probably because they are very loud, then soft, then loud and change pattern. Ugh. I am going to watch the answers here. I sure hope there is someone who has a new solution.
S.
