    OMG yes!

    It drove DH nuts... He was pretty good about it most of the time. But there was one night when I was heavily pregnant (probably about 35 weeks) and had finally just fallen asleep after a couple of hours of tossing and turning. He woke me up because I was snoring And I cracked it. He copped something along the lines of...

    'you woke me up because I'm snoring, there's a perfectly good bed downstairs! I've finally fallen asleep after 2 hours, I have sciatica, I wake up every time I move in my sleep, then I wake up every two hours to pee, I have a permanently blocked nose, I have swollen feet, I have heartburn, I'm burping constantly, I can't lie on my tummy, I can't lie on my back, I can't have a glass of wine, I can't get comfortable for more than 2 minutes.... and my snoring is bothering you - gee I wish this pregnancy was as inconvenient for me as it is for you!!!!!'

    Suffice to say there was never a comment about my snoring again. And he felt even worse because I was tossing and turning for another hour cos I couldn't get back to sleep after he woke me up LOL

    But the good news is, I stopped snoring not long after DS was born.

    I feel like copying your script there and quoting it verbatum!
    LOVE it!
