How do I stop snoring?

[cailin maith]

You're all missing the obvious solution here - the beautiful girlfriend needs to start drinking more!!

That way she'll fall asleep quicker, and deeper

Sorted!

Good answer!

Dump her and go for one that sleeps soundly and doesn't mind you snoring?

There's an ad on tv for those strips you put over your nose. Never used them and so don't know if they work.

My missus used to snore like a banshee - turns out she had certain food allergies which affected her breathing... she cut those foods out and snoring down to an acceptable level

I used to snore very loudly - now a lot less.

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea - I suggest that you get checked out for this. I was prescribed a mouth piece that kept my jaw open and helped me breathe - snoring reduced but bloody uncomfortable (and you dribble worse than a baby!).

The next thing I had done was removing my tonsils (at 35 - bloody parents not doing it when I was 5). Painfull but soon recovered - not snored much since (unless pissed as a fart).

If you really are concerned (and it seems like your girlie is) I would go to your GP and disscuss the issue.

apnoea - this is ContractorUK not ContractorUSA

But agreed, allways worth a check for this if it's really bad, I have a nosepiece that blows air up my hooter to keep my throat open, was very interesting trying to get that through Manchester airport 2 weeks after the terror alert...

The only problem is now I don't snore, the other half misses it!

They help slightly, but are not really all that effective. And they are a bit pricey too for what they are.

Whenever one of us snores, the other just goes sleep in the spare bedroom. We have been married for 12 years though, and we don't take it personally.

Done that on holiday - no big deal if you ask me but makes him feel bad.

In the early days, when I asked why wifey slept in another room, she would come up with some excuse so as to not potentially hurt my feelings; something like she was too hot/fidgety and wanted to let me sleep in peace.

Now she just says: because you were snoring like a drunken pig, darling.
