My air matterss loose air after a night sleep why?
I sleep on air mattress that you pump up. I snore allot and my wife cant handle it. I am going through a sleep study until i get my cpap machine. I wake up and its lost air a lil bit. Dose this have to due with car tires and the pressure is lost due to the cold? or is the air destiny issue? If i filled it with nitrogen will it help??
heres the problem everytime i try to sleep i hear my mom snoring. yeah i know. i cant tell her to stop snoring cause you cant really make that happen. i dont want to take any sleeping pills, wear ear plugs or listen to my ipod because that will usually keep me awake. ive gone to several websites and tried stuff from breathing deeply, taking warm showers before going to sleep, exercising before sleeping, drinking warm milk, stretching to counting 100-1 while breathing deeply at each number (yes i know sounds crazy). i dont wanna go to the doctor or anything. and yes i probably have insomnia because of this. is there even a way of curing this? im really sick of sleeping about an hour after laying restless in bed and then waking up around 45 minutes later then going through the same routine over and over. oh yeah im only 15 years old.
Are you able to move your sleeping area to a different part of the house? You could have a small fan running, the noise is sort of like white noise that may cover some of the snoring. Maybe you can suggest to your mother to try those nasal strips or throat spray for her snoring, it can be risky for some snorers to get sleep apnea. I feel for ya kiddo, my ex husband snored like a lumber jack sawing logs…unbearable!
My Wife Talking in her sleep and Snoring(while cat walks on her)FUnnY !
How can I put my cat on a diet w/o her hating me or whining all day?
I was just looking to see if my cat’s snoring is harmful and it’s often associated with being fat. The Mexican guys who came to work on my shower called her fat too.
I would like to thin her up but I don’t know how to do it without her hating me. She’ll tell me when her food and water is empty. Or, more likely when the food she didn’t eat isn’t fresh enough for her. . .
I need to lose some weight too so we could go on a diet together!
Anyway, she is very strong willed and I can’t have her mad at me! Crazy expensive food isn’t the answer! Though i think i have seen weigh management
Help!
Lots of good nutrition info here but that’s not what I was asking – it’s how to deal with her being very pissed off that i’m not giving her as much food. And waking me up at night whining for more, etc. Because of certain circumstances I’m just concerned about her being mad at me. She’s got a personality just like me. . .
Firstly, how old is this cat? If this is an older cat, you are going to have to proceed SLOWLY. If an older cat loses too much weight too rapidly, it can cause a life threatening illness called Hepatic Lipidosis or Fatty Liver Disease. It CAN happen to younger cats too, if they drop weight too fast because of anorexia from an illness. But in older cats, just cutting back the food too quickly can bring it on.
So, you will want to stop free feeding your cat. (And please tell me you change her water every day and not when she runs out?)
If she is drinking alot of water, you need to take her to the vet. She may have developed diabetes.
If she is healthy other than the obesity, start feeding her 4 times a day. DO NOT free feed. Give only what she will clean up in one feeding. If there is any left over when she walks away pick it up and throw it away. I usually feed my cat at 5am, noonish, 5pm and right before I go to bed.
As to your question about her bothering you during the night, I trained my cat when she was a kitten not to wake us up. She would come tearing through the house and leap on the bed full bore and whoever she landed on was collateral damage. I remedied this by catching her in mid air several times and putting her in the bathroom. Her food, water and litterbox were in there and there was a rug she could lay on. We couldn’t hear her yelling and she quickly learned that 3am was NOT the time to play or beg for food. She would also get into things on the dressers and make a general nuisance of herself. I remedied this by throwing a small stuffed animal at her. It was no bigger than the size of my hand, so it wouldn’t hurt her or anything else it hit, but had enough weight that if it did hit her she would know it. Between these two things, it took her about 2 months to learn not to wake us at 3am. She will do it only occasionally now, because she can see the raccoons and possums from the front and back yards going past our bedroom window. The headboard is in front of the window, so we know if she comes running and leaps up looking out the window there is something outside.
I hope this helps. Cats ARE trainable, just not the same as dogs.
Snoring is always a butt of joke for many but for other people it is a serious problem. It does not only concern with the family members but with the person who snores because sometimes it is a sign of a serious medical problem.
Snoring, like all other sounds, is caused by vibrations that cause particles in the air to form sound waves. For example, when we speak, our vocal cords vibrate to form our voice. When our stomach growls (borborygmus), our stomach and intestines vibrate as air and food move through them.
While we are asleep, turbulent airflow can cause the tissues of the nose and throat to vibrate and give rise to snoring. Essentially, snoring is a sound resulting from turbulent airflow that causes tissues to vibrate during sleep.
Snoring is commonly caused by the following reasons:
* Seasonal allergies can make some people’s noses stuffy and cause them to snore.
* Blocked nasal passages or airways (due to a cold or sinus infection) can cause a rattling snore.
* A deviated septum, which is the tissue and cartilage that separates the two nostrils in your nose, may be crooked.
* Enlarged or swollen tonsils or adenoids may cause a person to snore.
* Drinking alcohol can relax the tongue and throat muscles too much, which partially blocks air movement as someone is breathing and can contribute to snoring noises.
* Being overweight can cause narrowing of the air passages.
Good news, snoring has a lot of solutions available in the market and even simple self-help remedies. This includes changing in lifestyle like correcting the sleeping posture, losing weight, avoiding alcoholic beverages and sedatives, do inhale steam before bedtime and using special pillows. You can also try throat sprays, positive airway pressure, palatal stiffening, mouthpiece devices, radio frequency tissue reduction, surgery and hypnosis.
If you fail with the simple solutions mention above, then consult a doctor there might be a suppressed medical condition that you are unaware of. Stop the noise and disturbance you make every night and have happy and healthy sleep.
I wanted to take the time to show you how to silent snore problems. If you have this problem than you probably don’t think it is that big of a deal. You’re sound asleep while you do it, so it isn’t that big of a deal. But you have to think of the people around you that have to listen to it. It’s time to think of your wife or husband. It’s time to think of your roommate or children. They’re the ones that have to listen to this night after night. You’re only lowering the quality of their sleep, which puts them in a much more stressed out position. I’m going to show you how to silent snore problems.
When it comes to snoring something specific is happening in your throat area. Essentially your throat is just a tube, but imagine if that tube was squeezed. What would happen? You’d experience much faster speeds with the air going through the tube, which would create wheezing sounds and causing any loose tissue to vibrate. This is essentially what happens when you snore. The real question is what makes your throat constrict? It is actually your jaw and the way it is positioned as you sleep.
Now all you have to do to silent snore problems is use a jaw supporter. It is a really simple device that wraps around your head. It holds up your chin as you sleep and keeps the jaw off your throat. This prevents you throat from constricting in size, so you won’t produce any snoring sounds.
Im 24 weeks pregnant and just started snoring horribly, well as far as what my fiance tells me lol, I been having really bad sinus lately and I have been extremely tired. I was wondering if that breath right stip would help, and I was going to try and take some tylenol sinus before I go to bed, my doctor said I could take it, so I was asking for some advice on some things I could do to help my problem for my fiance lol thanx for all answers!
the snoring could be from the sinus problem as the channels around nose close up, try the breath right strip first, some tylenol sinus before bed if that don’t work,
Laying certain ways can make some people snore ,and as you are pregnant you could be laying on your back more and this could cause snoring
You are not alone if you are frequently awakened by midnight grunts. So many fall victim to snores, regardless if they are the snorer or the bed partner.
Snoring is the condition simply associated with noise created during sleep. There are various conditions that may be considered as its cause but the bottom line is- it is all due to any blockages directly affecting the throat, mouth and nose.
Snoring may be due to the following conditions:
Excess mass in the throat. This may be caused by extra long soft palate or uvula and excess tissues due to bulky necks. Because the throat is limited in space, it is often not ideal if there would be extra muscles that would be dangling in it.
Overweight people often snore since their necks are a bit stuffier than ordinary-built people. Some children, on the other hand, snore when they have inflamed adenoids or large tonsils.
Poor muscle tone of the throat and the tongue. Muscles during sleep are less tense thus those muscles found in the air passages are likely to be encouraged to collapse or collide with each other. This collision will then cause vibrations that we call snores.
Because of poor muscle tone, the tongue is allowed to fall back to the throat. This then is known to cause blockages since the tongue can possibly obstruct the passage of air.
Poor muscle tone may also be induced through taking alcohol or any substance that causes relaxation before sleep.
To resolve snoring, one either has to find relief from these causes or permanently erase the main source of the condition.
There are various methods of treating the causes of snoring through using stop snoring devices. From nasal strips to adjustable beds, you are sure to find one that will suit your preferences and convenience.
Be warned though that some products are known to induce no relief for the snorer. However, don’t jump to conclusions that such don’t actually work. Often, it may be because the products are not properly used or they simply don’t fit as remedies for a specific type of snoring.
Nasal strips for example should only be used by those people who, for the most parts, is affected by snores rooting from problems in the nasal passages. These nasal strips then are not suited for snorers whose primary problem comes from the blockages found in the mouth.
While most patients are familiar with stop snoring sprays, not all people report that these actually induce relief. Often, people comment of its credibility. This is especially true for those types who claim of “softening throat tissues”. It is good to remember that snoring is not caused by either soft or hardened tissues but of those that block the air passages.
Another common product for snoring are the stop snoring pillows. These are not your-ordinary-pillows since they are constructed specifically for people who have the need to lie on their sideward sleeping position.
Lying flat on the back while sleeping can effectively narrow the passages of air. Add the fact that the jaw is often forced to drop to give room for the tongue, thus adding up to the pile of problems caused by blockages.
Before buying any products to treat snoring, it is best to educate yourself well so you can get the best of the benefits.

What are the best kind of earplugs to buy for sleep?
I am having trouble sleeping because my partner snores, and I have tried earplugs, but for the most part they either dont block out noise (the foam ones barely stay in my ears) or they hurt my ears to the point that i cant wear them. Does anyone know where I can buy a pair of ear plugs that will block out noise but that also wont hurt my ears??
I highly recommend this …
Howard Leight Max-1 Ear Plugs, Uncorded, NRR33, 200 PR / box
I’ve worn these for about four years mostly for motorcycle riding but also for trying to sleep in the same room as my snoring buddies on hunting trips, and a couple times with my circular saw.
These are the most comfortable, most silence inducing plugs I’ve ever used. Just as a warning though, these aren’t miracle workers: because they seal well and are snug (in just about any ear canal) I think your ear will end up a little tender, but it’s easily worth the incredible reduction in decibels. And these plugs are much much more comfortable than any others I’ve tried.
Hope this help Good Luck!
