What do you do when your spouse snores and wakes you up?

I would nudge my husband to make him move positions so he would stop. He hasn't snored now that we have a memory foam mattress now-YES!

I'm getting a memory foam mattress soon...I only *hope* that I can look forward to this with my husband! He snores very loudly, and is just like a grumpy baby if you nudge him/try to make him roll over. I mean, he's ugly mean if I even try! He never remembers it though, (or at least he doesn't admit it) so I can't really blame him, and I've become used to the attitude. At first I was hesitant to possibly wake him in trying to get him to be quiet, but not any more-I need my sleep just as much as he does, and if he wakes me, I HAVE to do something-otherwise, I would lay awake all night.

That's how I was, I can't lay there and listen to it! I hope the matress works for you, it's a miracle that he never snores anymore. I think it's because he gets better sleep and isn't as tired. He would snore the most when he was really tired. He also has a memory foam pillow too, maybe that helps some too. I hope it works, I have empathy for you.

I gently wiggle his nose. ^_~ He twitches like a little puppy and turns over. Strangely, he sleeps soundly the rest of the night.

I wake up my husband and bi**h him out, make him roll over or go sleep on the couch! Nothin' worse than a snorer!

I wish I knew the answer to this question. I use earplugs and even then he wakes me up. The only way I can sleep through the night is if I fall asleep first and have been sleeping for awhile. I didn't know the memory foam mattress helped with snoring. Interesting!

I practically have to roll my husband over, sometimes he just turns his head, like that's going to help.

I used to poke and nudge my hubby when he snored. But after so many years, I've given up the battle and got an air mattress for myself. Best solution ever (at least, until I can convince him to get that nose surgery).

I smile and roll over and am happy that I am not the only one who snores
