11:00 - 6:00 Just right for me, and the sunshine here today is helping, too.

Went to be around 11pm and got up at 6:30 am, so had it on for 7 hours. I wash the pillows and small hose every day. They gave me a citrus spray to clean the parts with and then rinse good. My air pillows are a small, I also have extra small and I think I will try them tonite and see if that makes a difference.

ever since i told poppapuff to wash his mask everyday mine has been leaking.... grr
a pretty good night ... but the April Showers day we're having here is making me feel like napping. Gorgeous weather yesterday, and flowers are coming out more now: daffodils, tulip trees, forsythia. After a Michigan winter, somehow Spring seems more beautiful to me.

NOT ENOUGH! But not because of CPAP problems. Did not turn out the light until 1 am, then woke at 5:00, anxious about $$. Also 2 of my 3 daughters had said they were planning to phone me this morning - which they did. I worried about when they'd call and whether the phone ringer was switched on (after the phone fell the other day, it was off). Also speculated about WHY they were calling. One works for GM, and she has sent out resumees, and might move far away. Lots going on, and we're all hanging on. So I'm tired and depressed. Turned out the girls wanted to talk about the one who lives in Florida planning to bring her two boys up for a visit for a week in July. She is a pharmacy manager, and her biggest problem is that her backyard swimming pool caved in, and she's having it demolished and filled. She says it will make more room for their two dogs, a boxer and a golden, to play.

I agree BIGPOPPAPUFF, I'm so tired of my mask leaking, if i roll over just right it starts leaking at my eyes.....
yeah...it's not leaking badly...but enough to cause some unrest....i'll play with it today...or maybe switch to another of my three masks (or is it four??)..then switch back to this one...

Yes we always worry about our children, my daughter is 18 and in Maine and even though she is an adult I always worry about her. I am glad you got some good sleep. It's so hard to function when we dont get enough rest. Have a blessed day.

So glad he had a good trip, and hope his visit is good for him, too. Moms always worry when our kids are away, don't we?

CHICORAY, You were a big help, I read the article too. I have just been stressed out about my son leaving for Maine to see his Dad for the holiday but, he called me when he got off the plane and he had a safe trip so that was a relief. Hopefully I can sleep better tonight.

Hey PJC, Read the post I made today on the new thread about the importance of GOOD SLEEP, and what it does to our hormones that control weight~! Sleep Apnea DOES affect our weight! And not just because it makes us tired! It's too much Ghrelin hormone, and not enough Leptin hormone, and sleep controls how much you have of each!
I went to bed too late again, and woke up early, so only

Sometimes I go all nite but on the other hand, I have nites that when I turn a certain way the air leaks or the machine will start beeping. I then just pull it off my face and go back to sleep.
