We sleep separately. DH had a CPAP but couldn’t sleep with it, so off he goes to the guest room.

Same boat.

Between the baby and DHs snoring, I get a maybe four 40-min stretches per night of sleep.

Reasonable. Although I will say having done it for a period of time and just gone back to sleeping in the same room recently, there are a lot of things you might miss about it. Falling asleep together after sex being a big one.

If you can maybe try and troubleshoot the snoring more. We got a new mattress pad for his side and a different white noise for mine, I no longer hear him at all.

Of course it’s fine. Though I second a sleep study. The mouthpiece that my DH now uses has cut down the snoring to a minimum and we’ve not had to do separate bedrooms.

Uhh...you know you don't do it in your sleep, right?

how and how often does sex happens if couple don't sleep together?

Totally reasonable

Of course not. Not a big deal.

If yo shut someone's mouth for them while they are sleeping they will not be able to snore. Just a tip. I shut my husband's mouth all the time -- he prefers it to sleeping alone.

About six years ago I realized that I woke up always feeling like I had been hit by a bus. I began sleeping in a different room and immediately felt more refreshed. As much as I miss sleeping with someone else, it is not worth feeling that way. Give it a shot, you have nothing to lose. My husband and I have a strong marriage.

Dh and I swap out time in the guest room. I snore. I intend to do a sleep study at some point, but it’s low on the list in the middle of the pandemic. It’s not a big deal. I’d rather not be waking him up all night long.

DH has been sleeping elsewhere because we are all isolating and I am sleeping better than I have in 15 years. It's amazing.

I’ve been married 12 years and I’ve always slept separately from DH as I snore. Our marriage is still strong, it’s just sleeping.

Tell him to get a CPAP. I did it keeps the snoring in check.

I love my husband dearly but he's a noisy sleeper. It's OK when he sleeps on his side but when he turns round to sleep on his back he starts snoring, gurgling, mouth breathing, etc.
I'm a light sleeper and it regularly keeps me awake.

I could wear ear plugs but I don't like them much.

We've been married 23 years. I'm 53 and he's 62.
