how do i get my husband stop snoring?

Answer 1

Pinch his nose closed. Buy one of those nose clips that keeps his closed, make him wear that to bed. He'll have to breathe through his mouth.

Answer 2

I shall relate an incident from a country from middle east. A man got married with a very beautiful young lady. She had the habit of snoring. The family of the girl hid this fact from the bridegroom's family. Few days after the marriage the husband filed a divorce suit on the basis of this snoring. The wife suggested to the judge a solution to arrive at a compromise. She suggested that she will sleep during the day when the husband is away at work and that she will not sleep or snore in the night. The judge, the husband, the families and advocates, all agreed to this solution. And then they lived happily thereafter. This story must be true because I read it as a news item in a prestigious newspaper. I forgot which newspaper. I had a paper clipping. That too I lost. That is another story. Another time.

OMG, my b/f snores so loud so I feel your pain because it can be so annoying to the person whom isn't snoring. My b/f tried sprays, nasal strips, continuous air, and everything else that you can think of. It was to the point where I told him that he was going to have to make an appt. for surgery. Then I ran across an ad in the local paper advertising a very small mouthpiece that you can get from your dentist. It was fully covered by dental insurance and he hasn't snored since and this is coming from someone who could be heard snoring all the way from the driveway to the bedroom. You may want to contact your dentist and see what they have to offer. Their are many names for the devices but they will be able to help you. Plus, it's not some big, bulky mouthpiece that makes your husband look like an alien while sleeping...it's very small and works wonders. Good luck!

There is no real simple cure for snoring.

Snoring is the act of breathing through the open mouth in such a way as to cause a vibration of the uvula and soft palate, thus giving rise to a sound which may vary from a soft noise to a loud unpleasant sound. This most commonly occurs during sleep, or immediately after death.

The cause of snoring is some kind of blockage in the breathing passage. Those blockages can be of many kinds—here are just a few:

Tongue falling into the throat
Allergies
Throat weakness causing the throat to close during sleep
Mispositioned jaw, often caused by tension in muscles
Fat gathering in, and around, the throat
When the airflow in the breathing passage becomes irregular due to a blockage the soft palate may start flapping. This flapping of the soft palate is what makes the snoring sound.

Numerical statistics on snoring are often contradictory, but at least 30% of the adult population and perhaps as many as 50% of people in some demographics snore. [1] [2]

Most of the time snoring is not a health risk to the snorer, but snoring resulting from a significant obstruction of the breathing passage can be an indication of the potentially life-threatening disorder sleep apnea.

Even if snoring may not be detrimental to the snorer, it can cause the snorer's bedmate to lose sleep. Being sleepy all day long can lead in some cases to life-threatening problems for the person and those around them. Also, studies have shown that there is a psychological component in snoring which causes discomfort in any listener, depending on the loudness, tone, frequency, and other auditorial attributes of the snore. Studies have shown that there is a direct inverse relationship between snoring and frequency of sexual activity between married partners, meaning that there is generally less sexual activity if one of the partners is a heavy snorer.

Snoring is usually an involuntary act, but may also be produced voluntarily.

According to Dr. William C Dement, of the Stanford Sleep Center, anyone who snores and has daytime drowsiness should be evaluated for sleep disorders.

The loudest snore on record was 93 decibels.

Snoring cures almost all revolve around clearing the blockage in the breathing passage. This is the reason snorers are advised to lose weight (to stop fat from pressing on the throat), to stop smoking (smoking weakens and clogs the throat), and to sleep on their side (to prevent the tongue from blocking the throat). But for many snorers those pieces of advice are not enough.

Surgery is one option to cure snoring (for example a uvulopalatopharyngoplasty); dental appliances such as a mandibular advancement splint are another. There are many devices such as nose clips to keep the nose open and jaw mechanics to keep the jaw in the right position. Different aids work for different people. Playing the didgeridoo (see http://bmj.bmjjournals.com/cgi/reprint/332/7536/266.pdf) according to this article in the British Medical Journal, can also help.

Answer 5

Three things come to mind... Snoring is sometimes associated with being overweight, so if you can convince him to lose some weight, it might help. Nasal alergy spray helps (e.g. Naseril). Finally, wax ear plugs are cheap, comfortable and almost completely block out the sound.
