How do you sleep with all the snoring?
Since I got my new Fitbit One a few days ago, I’ve been tracking my sleep habits with their awesome graphs on the Fitbit dashboard.
I knew I had been tired, but I didn’t really really just how much sleep I was not getting. My graph is all over the place, and one night it said that I was awakened 27 times! Can’t be right, can it?
Well, we co-sleep, and Jett still nurses, but that’s not the entire problem.
My mom has a history of not sleeping. They’ve tried to do a sleep study on her, and it’s been inconclusive. I think I have the same issues. So, couple unknown sleep issues with a baby who wakes up sever times a night, and you don’t sleep much.

I really think that a LOT of my problem is the snoring hubs. I mean, I snore too, now that I’ve gained so much weight, but he’s not as bothered by it as I am. I have 200 different things going through my head when I lay down, and last night, I realized that they pretty much stem from his snoring. Now, I know he can’t help it, so I’m not mad at him (even though that doesn’t stop me from kicking him black and blue all night long), but I lie there thinking all of these things…
- Will I ever be able to fall asleep?
- I hope the baby sleeps a while after I fall asleep.
- Is he going to wake the baby?
- Oh.. the baby’s moving.. don’t snore.. don’t snore..
- Why is he not stopping when I kick him?
- Ugh… the baby’s awake…
I love co-sleeping, because I love having the baby right there to be able to nurse when he wants (I can still sleep while he’s nursing!), but I wonder, sometimes, if I should get some sort of sleep earphones. You know, the ones with the headbands? I can’t sleep with earbuds in my ears.
But then, I’d worry that I’d not hear something that I need to hear, like one of the boys waking up, or the smoke alarm.
Do you sleep with a snorer? What do you do to drown out the sound and still stay aware of your surroundings?
My husband sounds like a freight train coming through our bedroom. I sleep on the couch a lot.
get him a sleep study, sounds like sleep apnea which can actually be life threatening for him.
Oh its from weight gain.
You should see mine with my baby at home!
Wow, that’s a lot of waking up. I don’t even want to know how many times I wake up at night. sigh.
I’m so thankful no one snores in my home.
I wish my Fit Bit Tracked my sleep. Then again, maybe I don’t LOL
WOW 10 hrs in bed I never get that but being awake 27 times I think i can relate to that. I really need to open up my fit bit and check it out. It’s been on my dresser for over a month 🙁
I sleep with a snorer. Sometimes I’m tempted to sleep on the couch, lol.
Yes, I sleep with a snorer… drives me NUTS!
My dog wakes me up to go pee. She is getting older, so it is just something I have to deal with. I’ve been wanting a FitBit for awhile. Maybe I’ll get the new wrist one when it comes out.
I am actually the only one who snores in my house, but I don’t always do it. LOL
No advice, but good luck!
I want to get one of these just to prove to Matt that he is keeping me up at night, he claims he isn’t.
My toddler cosleeps with us, so I use a white noise machine to drown out my husband’s snoring. Works great!
I just got one and am going to try it out tonight. I have not been getting a good nights sleep either.
Ouch, 27 times is no joke. My fiancee doesn’t snore but his alarms keep me up pretty often.
