Funniest sentence ever!
I have been snoring a lot too, also side sleeper. Have found nothing that helps, though.

My DH slept on the couch for weeks, then got used to it. Breathe right helped but didn't fix. Swelling membranes. Can't do a damned thing about it. Getting used to falling back into interrupted sleep will be a skill he needs to develop anyway. COnsider this practice.

Tell your husband to get used to it. My wife sounds the same(And yes, I've recorded it and played it back to her as well). We've tried some of the same things you mentioned, but nothing works. She says it is payback for all of the years she had to put up with my snoring I'm a heavy sleeper though, so it is only a problem when she falls asleep first. Of course, she's been more tired than usual and with all of the first-child worries on my mind, it is taking me longer to fall asleep, so the last few weeks have been rough. My best advice it to make sure he catches up on his sleep when he can and consider it good practice for after the baby is born.
