If your partner snores what would be your solution to getting a good night sleep?

Question

The solution would be to discover the underlying cause and pray about it. Through prayer my friend discovered her snoring was due to an iodine deficiency. When she took iodine and selenium all snoring went away. Other peoples underlying causes may be different.

On another note concerning one of the responses below. It seems that Muslims don't read their own book. I cannot pretend not to notice this...

I refer to these comments:

'In Islam, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of kindness and consideration towards one's spouse'

And this:

'Ultimately, Islam teaches us to prioritize the well-being and comfort of our spouses, even in matters as mundane as snoring, and to approach conflicts with compassion and mutual respect. '

Then all I will say is look at the video below and the following verses: 'Your women are your fields, so go into your fields whichever way you like. . . . (MAS Abdel Haleem, The Qur’an, Oxford UP, 2004)' Does this sound kind and considerate to anyone...

The Quran in Sura 4:34 says:

'If you fear highhandedness from your wives, remind them [of the teaching of God], then ignore them when you go to bed, then hit them. If they obey you, you have no right to act against them. God is most high and great. (Haleem, emphasis added)'

If my partner snores, there are a few solutions I could try to ensure a good night's sleep for both of us. Firstly, I might gently nudge them to change positions, as sometimes a different sleeping position can alleviate snoring. Additionally, using earplugs or playing white noise in the background could help drown out the sound of snoring.

In Islam, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of kindness and consideration towards one's spouse. Therefore, if my partner snores, it would be important for me to approach the situation with patience, understanding, and empathy. I could kindly discuss the issue with my partner and work together to find a solution that ensures both of us get a restful night's sleep. This might involve trying different remedies or even seeking medical advice if the snoring persists. Ultimately, Islam teaches us to prioritize the well-being and comfort of our spouses, even in matters as mundane as snoring, and to approach conflicts with compassion and mutual respect.

Snoring is comforting to me so I wouldn't do anything besides snuggle up next to them and sleep

LaFemmeFatale_1 · Answer

Thankfully, that has never been the case.

And even though my nose is broken, I sleep very quietly. So nor I nor my partner or friends who slept next to me had any problems with me.

So, not sure, what I would do.

AviatorTom · Answer

My SO cannot stand my snoring, so she says. She sleeps in the guest room.

IslaTheWitch · Answer

I developed the ability to fall asleep before my partner hits the pillow :P Once I'm asleep, there's little to no risk of being woken up by snoring, gunfire, fireworks, whatever :D

smne35 · Answer

Pick them up and put them in the car in garage, lol I'm kidding, it depends how loud it is and the sound it makes but I'm a deep sleeper and really don't hear as thing drinking a warm tea before bed lessens chance of snoring, but not really much you [can do except try all t=hose ga]dgets for sale

Daniela1982 · Answer

Get a Sleep Number bed and slap a Cpap on his yap. If that didn't work an elbow to the ribs might work then. In extreme snoring he might get kicked out of bed to go sleep with the dog on the couch.

Telekinetic-Potato · Answer

It depends, I can eventually sleep through anything. It's not something I would push on anyone but to me I just feel like you're kinda a pussy if you can't fall asleep because of some noise. I know it's irrational but it makes me fall asleep 😂

This one girl I dated had a really small nose and I used to think the way she snored was kinda cute.

Another one I dated snored much quieter but it oddly was way more annoying.

HawkPerception · Answer

Die in misery.

Honestly though, I'd probably look for solutions online, whether it might be a sleeping position issue or a blocked airway. I'd try to get them to try different things.

There is a correlation between obesity and the likelihood of snoring, so I would highly encourage my partner to workout.

sheikalana · Answer

My husband snores sometimes. Luckily not every night because I can barely stand it I have very light sleep. When he does I usually snuggle him and comfort him and he eventually stops. Sometimes people snore depending on the position they sleep in.

Fireguy17 · Answer

a sleep divorce.
My wife never believed me when I would tell her how bad she snores.
I even recorded it and she still wouldn't accept the fact that it was that bad.
After a few years she finally did a sleep study, it was so bad that they stopped it.
Her stats were way worse than I thought.
She got a C pap and lost weight so that helped out a lot.

Veles · Answer

Get rid of the partner. Complete elimination of the source permanently solves the problem.

matchrestore · Answer

I rarely have trouble sleeping with it, but in the off chance I do I might go to a guest room. Maybe 6 or 7 times a year. I end up in the guest room because I was kicked out of bed by the 5 year old more often.

OddBeMe · Answer

Usually it’s their throat not being extended enough. I bought a neck pillow turned it around backwards where the cushion was under my chin. Kept my asophagus open and snore free.

Eventually I guess I learned to sleep that way. But the wife knows to nudge me and tells me to get the neck pillow back on if I slip.

naartjie · Answer

Make sure you’ve got a spare rooms go to sleep together, the moment the shooting starts, you hop into the bed in the spare room.
My grandparents did this and they lived happily together since their 20s.

molonski2 · Answer

Gee , I'm not sure , never had one who snores ( that I know of ) , I sleep so dam well here , I honestly dont think it would matter too much , so much better than in Australia , I think its the exposure to the sun.

MiddleAgedClimbee · Answer

We have an adjustable base bed that remedied the situation in most instances for me. Otherwise, she requests that I go to the guest room.
Usually raising the head up, helps a little bit unless you have a serious problem problem.

Koneko911 · Answer

He'd have to sleep somewhere else. Like I know I sound like a bitch but omg I can't stand snoring. I can't even sleep when I'm sick and my chest makes that whistle sound when I breath. But man snoring is awful for me.

AmyHew1tt · Answer

Snoring would be a dealbreaker for me tbh. I can't sleep even in the same house as someone who snores. It drives me insane.

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

Slowly and unnoticeably changing the angles on his side of the bed usually works for me.  According to him, he does the same thing when I'm snoring beyond what he can tolerate.

Katie1964 · Answer

Hubby snores, at first it kept me awake. Now when he's away for work I can't sleep, its like a ceiling fan or background noise that I am used to.

DJB72 · Answer

Get them a CPAP. Snoring is a symptom of sleep apnoea, which can be fatal in extreme cases as they actually stop breathing for up to a minute.

If they sleep all night but wake up tired that's a symptom as well.

electromagnetic · Answer

My partners snores and guess what? I don’t have a solution. I just sleep. It might not be a solution for rough sleepers but I talk in mine and that bothers him sometimes.

Simslover92 · Answer

I got used to it but I would say for those that can't get used to it to try to go to sleep before they do.

XXblack88 · Answer

I sleep hard so it probably won't be a problem but if it was, I'd grab a pillow and blanket and sleep on the couch. I don't see the point in waking someone if they're sleeping good.

Little_Bumblebee · Answer

If it's bad enough I would have to sleep in a separate room. Otherwise, if it's light, I just have to fall asleep before they do.

DaBiggestBird · Answer

Sometimes closing their nose holes for a second or two works. If that doesn’t work, I’ll just deal with it, it’s her after all. It’s like the All-Drains policy, NO chug goes left undone.

Paul09 · Answer

I'd never sleep again. I would not be able too. Usually people snore on their backs. Not sure why they don't try other sleeping positions. I've woken myself on the rare occasions I ever snored. 😂

Kylie_Bug · Answer

Haven’t had that happen, yet. Earplugs, maybe?

I’m the one that snores but I would try certain things to stop it, maybe a different bed , or sleep in another room. If it’s sleep apnea, then maybe try to get it fixed

Massageman · Answer

My wife and I sleep at different times- she gets our room, I get the guest room so I don't wake her up when I sack out.

sage2021 · Answer

I never found a solution. Each time it would get loud, I would just roll him on his side. So sweet - he would always apologize for it waking me up.
But I snore pretty loud too. He would just let me sleep and go in another room.

Sleeping apart. You can try some of the workarounds but there's not a full solution. Elective sleeping together is a modern habit.
