I think I was bad!!!

[Janet]

Rmember yesterday I told you I was woke up by my husband snoring and Emilee having to potty? Well, my husband woke me up again this morning snoring, at 3:00 AM. I poked him a couple of times and told him to quit snoring. He yelled something like, I can't help it and something about 'beating him up.' All I did was poke him. Anyway, he went storming into the other room. Me....I just rolled over and went back to sleep. I don't have time for dramatics, plus I needed sleep after losing some the night before for the same reason.

I just don't understand....he has the sprays and the thingy that goes over his nose to help and it really does. SO WHY DOESN'T HE USE THEM? He can get mad all he wants, but I'm tired of being the one that has to go to the other room. This is exactly why we are getting separate bedrooms whether he likes it or not. I'm tired of this and he trying to make me feel like a bad person because I can't sleep because of his snoring.

Please don't say he should see a Dr. about it...he won't. The only reason he went to the Dr. about his back is because after 5 years of pain, he couldn't take it any longer.

I guess I should have put this in the VENT forum, but it's also about our relationship so I put it here.

It's unfortunate that our men who snore can't help it. LOL ~ It's not like they go to bed each night thinking "I can't wait to start snoring and wake my wife up!"

I would think it's almost more harmful to them in the long run. Lack of oxygen, not sleeping as well, etc....

What's funny Janet you might notice. Is when you do both decide to sleep in sepearte bedrooms, you might find you still don't sleep well and wake up earlier than expected. Then again maybe not...LOL

My husband had those night snoring bands also that attach to the nose. Robert said it bugged him too much to wear it. Maybe your husband has found this out also?

I am sure the two of you will work out the sleeping arrangements and find what works best for the two of you.

"Sweet Dreams!!"

The sound of snoring can be VERY annoying! The thing is, i find that my hubs snores more when he is stressed for some reason, i have kicked and poked him in the past, and awww - when i wake him up, he always says "sorry lovey" and turns around, so i can NOT get mad at him for snoring LOL

Janet, my hubby snores too, so I know how crazy it can drive you in the middle of the night; and MINE is only home one or 2 nights a week!

I think if you want to sleep in separate rooms, then go for it. It certainly isn't helping your relationship or your health to sleep (or NOT sleep) next to his snoring. You might find you like him better once you're rested up and not resenting him for destroying your rest.

Very well said Tink.
I have a big problem remembering to use any treatments I've bought or take any meds I should. Maybe he has the same problem, he just forgets to use the things he has to help?

I'm sure he just forgets to use it. I don't think he'd be a jerk on purpose...at least I don't think he would.

I do sleep great when the boys are camping with scouts. I just sleep so much better and feel so refreshed in the morning. I'm not just going MOVE HIM OUT, we will discuss it (I'm still getting my way) LOL, but he'll at least think he agreed to it.

He has woke up before after I've started crying at being so tired and not able to go back to sleep. So he knows it's very important and how if affects me. I honestly do believe it will make things better in just everyday life, to have more restful sleep for the both of us.
