First night thoughts

Post by ahagen » Sat Oct 24, 2015 6:52 am

Made it through the first night. Not as smooth as I hoped, but not that bad. I had more problems with leakage than i had hoped. I have some questions about my first night.

1. The humidifier started off okay, but seemed to be less effective as the night went on. Could the hose be too cool?
2. When i would breath through my mouth i would sometimes get the dog with its head out the window effect. Is that normal?
3. I would start to feel myself drift off, but would wake. Not because I couldn't breathe, but almost as a reflex?

Any help would be appreciated.

#2 - Air is being pumped in at pressure, so it's reasonable that it would go out strongly...
