My boyfriend is a horrible snorer! Latly it has gotten to the point where i cant even sleep during the night. Or he will wake me up with it. Is there anything i can buy at the store without spending alot of money. I know there are surgeries and such. but i cant real afford anything like that and neither can he. So i was just curious if there was anything that i could use that wouldnt be to much and you can find at a walmart. Also there is no way for me to use ear plugs, because soon we will have an infant in the room and i will need to beable to hear the baby cry whenever it wakes up in the middle of the night. I could possible use them until the baby is born but after that there is no way. So please help me. =[
Thank you

I feel your pain. He must have go and get a Sleep Study done. ASAP. He could suffer from OSA ( obstructive sleep apnea). He could also have some cardiac issues too. Is he overweight? I don't want to scare you but sometimes these people forget to breathe during their sleep and can be subject to cardiac arrest ( heart attack) Also, a persons oxygen level drops sometimes in the 80's with OSA. Of course, this is why I am recommending he have the study done. I have had my husband using those "breathe right strips and that stop snoring spray before to no avail. The best thing would be a CPAP machine that would be prescribed by a doctor that will have appropriate settings on them for your boyfriend.

My boyfriend snores REALLY badly and I end up getting angry with him. I have tried rolling him over like you,and have even thrown water over him in the past so he would stop snoring - didn't work anyway! Have you tried those nose opener things? I;ve seen them on an advert on TV - they open the nasal passages or something.

Breathe Right strips work quite well. My ex used to harass me about this (actually my current too, I'm gonna pick some up).

Look into an operation. It's 100 percent effective... and done with lasers.
