Wives of snorers - foam earplugs
If you haven't tried them, you really must. They have saved my marriage.
I don't even notice when they're in anymore, it didn't take long to get used to wearing them.
Nigel snores like a bear with a headcold who drank a keg by himself. Plus he does the snarfing and choking thing so it's not even rythmic. (yes, he's talked to a doc about it, lol)
But I'm serious, they offer a restful night's sleep.

Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
Re: Wives of snorers - foam earplugs
Eh, just figured I'd ship the hubby off to Ohio and finally get my full-nights sleep back....
But seriously, you can't hear him snoring but you can hear your alarm go off?
Yes, it's weird. I think it might be a pitch thing. Sometimes he breaks through, but really 98% of the time I can't hear a damn thing. I would definitely hear a fire alarm, and can hear my morning alarm, no problem.
I'm really not kidding at all when I say they saved our marriage, lol.

Same here. They always pop out.
It's a frequency thing. I am almost totally deaf in my left ear (which means I sleep REALLY soundly), but I have minimal hearing of high frequency sounds. Noises that come from CO alarms, smoke detectors, or alarm clocks have a higher frequency, which allows for those with hearing loss--or earplugs--to be able to hear them.
I feel your pain, but my husband has sleep apnea. He still snores with a mask, but is going back at the end up March for another sleep study to see if he needs the surgery.
