Recommend only in the USA, Asian countries recommend the tummy for sleeping. The truth is, it doesn't really matter if everything is fine. Depending on the illness and infant's comfort, it is what you should do.
I have slept on my left side my entire life I am 65. I was never ok with back sleep, stomach no way or the right side. 30 days ago I got a Cpap due to severe sleep apnea. I now sleep on my back, I do have an adjustable frame. Feet above hips and head up just slightly. No longer do I have severe hip pain or shoulder pain. What a blessing oh and I tape my mouth shut.
In my personal experience, it’s the hose hooked up to the mask that will destroy your sleep. You can have a great mask , but the hose will catch onto your headboard , your nightstand , even trailing it behind the pillows, it will snag . And your hair will rip right out too. Why can’t they invent a CPAP fhat is able to generate air within the mask headgear itself . The problem with the machine is I feel like I’m a Hoover for 6 hours a night !
Just started with Cpap 30 days ago first 3 weeks mask and now nose. There are issues with the hose and air making loud noise. I did not sleep well without Cpap and I am still struggling due to air leakage. But strangely my sleep must be better because I am not as sleepy during the day.....weird!
It took me about 4 months to actually get used to sleeping with a full mask on.i still have the occasional night where I just feel to claustrophobic to continue wearing it so I take it off and at least get done sleep.The noise is probably due to some air leakage or a mask break. Leakage usually is simply due to the mask not being tightly strapped. I'm hoping to just use a nose mask. I'm definitely a side sleeper. I'm in the UK so the machine is provided by our NHS though I have requested a nose only mask they've ignored me. With some leakage you WILL feel better than without using CPAP ime
I'm 5-7, 34yrs old and 210lbs... and have extreme sever sleep apnea (80+ ahi). Why do I get all the luck? required to sleep at a pressure of 18psi... hate this so much.
For 10 years I have have these strange symptoms of waking up with no energy in my body every 2 weeks or so. It lasts a day or two and no tests can reveal anything. Can it actually be from not having ny strap on tight enough?
My fitness watch has a function that tests my o2 overnight while sleeping. I found out that when my mask was loose, my o2 levels dropped into the 80's at times during the night. I tightened it up and was about 90 all night. Mine is a ten year old garmin watch. Maybe you could borrow a friends to see if you're o2 is dropping at night. I'm not a doctor, so just take it as my experience.
@@robbyddurham1624 its been better since I titghened it. Still have symptons but they're improved, which tells me that was it. I will do that Friend and thank you!
@@robbyddurham1624 I have samsung watch 6 and my mask was tightened fast, and it shows 95-100% o2 levels but still the leak is showing as 24 l/min. Compared it with yesterday, o2 levels were like 85% for a min, and the mask was not so tight. Now, I don't know whether it is the cushion or the head strap, it is n20 nasal mask.
Your CPAP supplier should be able to ship you 6 nasal pillows for a 3-month supply and these are covered by most health insurance companies. Just like replacing your toothbrush every 3 months or so, you have to replace your face masks to avoid infection!
I think i need one of these machines but looks like a trial would need to be done. Unfortunately trials aren’t an option. This dam apnea is going to kill me though. I know it. Wife keeps waking me up saying dammit you’re not breathing
Get help as soon as you can. I’ve had sleep apnea for years and never did anything about it since I was still young and didn’t really affect me until now where I feel extremely exhausted every day and was affecting my cognitive health and pretty sure the reason to why I have high blood pressure too. Luckily my insurance covers 75% of the cost and I just started using one yesterday so I’m hoping I’ll see positive results soon.
I got way more information out of this video than the guy at the doctors office who got me started with my first CPAP.
i find it fascinating that back sleeping makes apnea worse and yet it’s what’s recommended for safe sleeping for infants

There are inexpensive hose holders that connect to the bed headboard that solve the problem of the hose snagging and you don't need a prescription.
this is very informative, i think i will go with the nasal mask
Thanks so much!
This video is a bit distracting. I can't figure out if we are in a bedroom or a garage.

how Much Full Face Mask With Machine Currently and Which Machine the best Please
How best tell if the N20 pillow (mask) is the right size (Medium or large)? Large collapses at the top after few hours... Thanks

I don’t see one that hold the jaw which is the most important one also can I attach this mask to any machine?
There's a jaw strap that can be ordered to add to the face headgear but most users don't require one.
Great video, thank you
Glad you liked it!
great presentation good advice x
Is there any mask that lets you sleep on your stomach?
you need special bed for that like massage bed with hole fro face
Probably a nasal pillow with the 6' tubing attachment on the top of the headgear.
@@Steve_in_NJDo you have the make and model number? Or a link to an image of one? Thanks.
ResMed Airfit P30i Mask (Nasal pillow mask)suitable for stomach sleepers like me.@@tastybrownie7448
Cradle mask (dreamwear)
Why would a cpap mask require a prescription and be that expensive.?

@@robbyddurham1624I think it's very easy to ignore the mask being firmly strapped

They didn’t tell me the nasal pillow had to be replaced twice a month!

You can do a home sleep test, alot cheaper and convenient.
My advice is get yourself checked medically
