That's the same thing my husband has!. It's called sleep apnea!. There are different cases of this, some worse than others!. My husband has to wear a monitor at night that goes off if he stops breathing!. It will wake him up and then he knows to change positions!. He only does this when he is sleeping on his back!. He will then turn to one of his sides and all is fine!. Your hubby needs to go get checked out and have a few tests done!. It could be that he is just a really bad snorer, or allergies congesting him!. There are multiple things it could be!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sounds just like sleep apnea, which is still dangerous and not to be taken lightly!. Only way to diagnose is to see a DR and they will schedule a sleep study ($) and then give him an O2 mask to wear at night!. Only other way to fix is a surgery!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Get a tape recorder or a video tape recorder even better!.
get him on tape as being the only person in the room and doing his little thing!.
Sleep Apnea is a very serious condition!! Needs to see a doctor as it can be deadly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

What your husband is experiencing is called Obstructive Sleep Apnea or OSA!. It can happen because you're overweight or not, some people just have a lot of soft tissue in the back of their throat or a large tongue!. Take him to his doctor and explain what is happening throughout the night!. They will also probably ask if he is tired throughout the day like he hasn't been rested!. OSA prevents your husband from going into REM sleep or rapid eye movement!. The doctor will schedule a sleep study to monitor your husband's breathing while he sleeps as well as monitoring brain waves to detect REM sleep!. If they witness the apnea they will apply a CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) or BIPAP (bilevel positive airway pressure) machine!. It is a mask that provides a flow of air to keep his airway open and prevent the apnea!. He will feel much better and more rested throughout the day with the application of this machine!.
