Now, what if nothing works? What if he snores so loud you can hear it in the driveway? This is where the curiosity shifts into serious territory. Loud, persistent snoring can be a sign of sleep apnea, where he actually stops breathing for a few seconds.
If you notice choking sounds, gasping, or if he’s exhausted during the day despite sleeping eight hours, it’s worth a doctor’s visit. Don't freak out—it’s super common and very treatable. They might give him a CPAP machine, which sounds dramatic but feels like a miracle cure.
Most of the time, though, it’s just a combination of a bad pillow, a dry room, and a side-sleeping habit. You’ve got the tools. You’ve got the curiosity. Now you just need a little patience—and maybe two sets of earplugs for the trial-and-error phase.
