first 2 nights I've used Cflex CPAP. the "farting" noises around the mask wake me up. Does this get better as I get used to it? Any suggestions for reducing these noise? My husband slept in the other bedroom so he could sleep. We laughed that maybe my snoring was easier to deal with.

Stevie; I also found this problem with sevarl masks that I have ried. My solution was to tighten the mask. This created a better seal to my face and eliminated the noises cause by excaping air.

stevie,

What brand and model mask are you using? Many people are given "crummy" masks to start out with.
