When I get up to go to the bathroom, sometimes it takes a long time to get it right on my face again. I think it's OK and then it's not. This can go on for quite awhile. That's what bothers me.
Don't take the mask off when you go to the bathroom. Use the tube's elbow quick disconnect to leave the hose in bed and the mask on your face. Reconnecting is easy - and you can do some "disconnect / reconnect" training runs during the day.
I actually don't take the mask part off. I disconnect it from where the heated hose meets the short tube. I think just sitting up, walking, and the short tube dangling must kind of shift it. The N30 is very light and squishy and easy to dislodge. I think, once I lie back down, I'm supposed to pull it slightly and let it plop back into place, but I'm no good at doing that in the middle of the night, if I even remember. :roll: Maybe that's what I should be practicing!

For some reason, I thought you were using the N20.

Here is a bunch of N30 mask fit videos, I hope some will help.
