Trouble yawning (Can't get a good yawn...)

[pgr]

I can't get a good yawn in with the mask on. I'm switching to the nasal pillow/prong but, I don't know if that will help.
What do you think about adding a petcock (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petcock) valve to turn turn off the airflow so you can yawn? It could be spring loaded so it opens when you let it go. It could open an air release valve in case using it would overhear the pump. I''m awake when I'm yawning anyway so, why not make it easier and more comfortable to yawn?

I've been at this for close to 21 months now and I still cannot yawn with the mask on. And I've worn a Swift FX nasal pillows mask the entire time.

I tend to try to do as much of my yawning as I can before putting my mask on as possible. And when I need to yawn after masking up? I just turn the machine off since it's within easy reach, yawn to my heart's content, and then turn the machine back on.

It's a bummer that I can't get a good yawn or talk comfortably with my hubby after I mask up.
