I’ve tried tapping him- but it wakes him- and the snoring only stops temporarily. I’ve tried pinching his nose, kicking his foot, tickling him. The snoring doesn’t wake me out of my sleep, but if I’m not asleep yet it keeps me up.
I do snore- but I wake myself up when I snore(my own snoring noise wakes me before it wakes him.) I’ve learned to adjust my pillow so that my airway is more open- then I do not snore-
He usually starts out on his stomach but when he rolls to his back that is when the problem starts.

i usually try to shift over myself and that usually gets him to roll over. don’t let him sleep on his back, that’s when it’s worst. you could also try some “breath right” strips, they might work.
i have the same problem. but i just tell my husband to roll over onto his stomach…..he snores the loudest on his back…..he sleeps on his tummy and i don’t hear a thing.
It is an easy question.I think You just need to put something into his mouth.
Why are you so sure you are not snoring too?
If both of you are snoring loudly and throughout the night then you should see a doctor, because most people who snore badly don’t realize they have a sleeping disorder that is unhealthy. Regular snoring should be like a kitten’s purr and only last for a while. Loud, constant snoring is caused by an obstruction in the air passageway which interrupts the sleep cycle. Typically if you turn the person to their side or belly the snoring should stop cuz it opens up the airways. Best to ask your doctor about it at the next physical.
radiocrows answer makes sense. A sleep apnea study is painless and could be valuable. Some people wear a device called CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) while sleeping, and have had great results.
get some of those breath rite strips they are awesome!
