I can't offer any advice but I'm so relieved to know I'm not the only one with this problem!
I have to admit my hubby sleeps most nights on the sofa downstairs
because I just can't sleep with his snoring. When he's asleep he's almost dead to the world and wouldn't hear a thing which is why
he goes downstairs as we have a 3 year old who wakes sometimes in the night and I need to go into her so earplugs for me are not an option any more which is what I used to use before we had her.
My hubby has been to the doctor and he told him to try losing weight, not drinking much and sleeping on his side
He has lost some weight recently but is still snoring, he only drinks once a week when he goes out with his mate on a Sunday evening (and he definetly sleeps downstairs that night! I normally end up going down though because he still keeps me awake!) and as for sleeping on his side - well he starts off like that but it doesn't last despite an elbow in the ribs!
I've been asking him to go back to the doctors to see if they can do anything but he won't entertain the idea of surgery as I had to have an operation on the inside of my nose years ago and ever since I've had really bad sinus problems - he says he's not going to risk anything like that!
I wish he would though because I feel bad that he has to sleep on the sofa and I worry about the impression it must give to our children (2 x 13 yrs and 1 x 3 yrs) if they go downstairs in the morning and see him there - I don't want them thinking that there's problems in our marriage (well the snoring is!) and that we're going to split or anything.
