Sleeping with DH..
Does anybody else have trouble sleeping with DH? When I mean sleeping, I mean eyes closed sleeping. 
I am the LIGHTEST sleeper, anything can wake me up. From rain to the hum of the ceiling fan and when my husband snores, it vibrates the bed and I can NOT sleep.
I usually end up on the couch and don't hold it against him because it is NOT his fault at all. He understands, but would rather me be in bed with him.
I have a fan that I use for noise at night, but nothing takes away the snores.
Any suggestions? Anybody else in that boat?
Re: Sleeping with DH..
I am not in that boat - I have slept through trains, thunderstorms, barking dog, etc. etc. Lucky me! But my MIL and FIL sleep in separate rooms for this very reason. When they are on trips and have to share a room she sleeps with soundproof headphones on and says it works. It may be uncomfortable but I guess you could get used to it??
Also maybe he should consider doing a sleep study thing. He could have sleep apnea which is causing him to snore and I think there's some stuff they can do to help alleviate that. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I've heard that!
Thanks! I've tried ear plugs - they gave me an ear infection, so maybe sound proof headphones would be the best. I barely sleep on vacations because of it.
I was going to suggest ear plugs....but I see those don't work for you. When I first started staying over his place, I used to have trouble sleeping because of his snoring. Earplugs helped, but they were uncomfortable. Now, I'm honestly just used to it, and we are both good sleepers.
Our troubles were more about hogging space and covers, and now that we have a King bed, it's MUCH better.

I could have written this myself. DH lost his mouth guard like 6 months ago and had the nerve to blame the poor dog. I'm sorry the dog chews on sock sometimes but did not eat an ENTIRE mouth guard!
Thanks everybody! I'm going to talk to DH tonight about going to a doctor for it...maybe he will if it is affecting my sleep so much. He's such a hard head though and probably won't.
I'm just the opposite. I have a hard time sleeping unless he's there next to me. Unless he's snoring really loudly, of course. LOL
He has a tendency to get up in the middle of the night, snack then sleep walk over to the couch. When I wake up in the middle of the night to pee like I usually do, and he's not there I get antsy. Once I see him sleeping on the couch I'll go back to bed but usually have a hard time falling back to sleep. It's like he's my security blanket or something.
Ditto! I definitely sleep better when DH is in bed with me. It took a while for me to get used to sharing the bed with someone, but now I find it relaxing.
About the snoring thing: definitely convince DH to go to the doctor - there are a lot of home remedies as well as more advanced therapies that can reduce snoring. If it is sleep apnea or something, he should definitely talk to a specialist.

DH only snores when he is on his back. Other than that it's not a big deal.
Both my parents have sleep apnea. They were the WORST snorers EVER. I remember one time we went on vacation with my parents and I literally could not sleep the whole weekend because my mom snored so loud. I was very cranky that weekend. Now they both have CPAP machines so it's all good.

I have a snorer some of the time, mostly when he sleeps flat on his back...and it can get loud...besides that, the beagle is a snorer, and she sleeps between us! Haha!!
When his gets to the point where I can rest, I just poke him and he understands and turns on his side, and right away the noise stops. I totally do feel your pain...hope you find a solution that helps you guys!
