Anyone start snoring late in your pregnancy (or is it just me)?

I'm 39 weeks pregnant, and a few weeks ago (according to DH) I started snoring pretty badly. I have never really been a snorer unless I have a bad cold or my allergies are bothering my sinuses, but apparently I've really started sawing logs! It is bad enough that I have woken myself up a few times.  I don't remember this happening when I was pregnant with DC1, and I'm guessing that maybe it's a combo of the way DC2 is smushing my lungs, diaphragm, and other organs when I lay down at night. Did anyone else develop pregnancy snoring (and if you did, please PLEASE tell me that it went away after birth)? I feel bad for DH because we live in a 2 bedroom condo, so the 2nd bedroom is DS's room and there is no guest room where DH can go to get some snore-free sleep.

| I also snored during pregnancy (both first and second). I think it was the combination of sleeping on my back (normally a stomach sleeper) and "pregnancy nose", congestion. I don't snore now (at least I don't think I do). |

| I did too during my 3rd trimester with #1, but I had some pretty bad pregnancy congestion toward the end. It will go away. |

| OMG, my husband recorded me and it was HORRIFIC. Stopped once I delivered, though, although snore strips provided some small relief ... |

| So badly that I would wake myself up!! Ended after delivery. Another one of those pregnancy things no one mentions. |

Also, you are fat, if only temporarily. Fat people snore more. |

OP here. I am VERY relieved to hear that this is normal and that it goes away!  I think that DH will be equally relieved when I tell him.

Totally normal. You'll even see it in the pregnancy books. I don't normally snore either but lately I've actually woken myself up because of my snoring. I honestly woke myself up the other night because I thought I heard growling. It was me

| Totally totally normal - my DH even got up in the middle of the night a few times to move to the guest bedroom because it was so bad. I just declared it to be payback for all the times he's kept me up with the snuffaluffagous routine. And yes it does go away again after pregnancy. |

| Pregnancy snoring is normal. My husband started sleeping in the guest room, I was so loud. But it was gone after the baby was born. |
