Any ideas?

I have developed the most annoying problem when I sleep. My mouth falls open I am not a 'mouth breather' and I don't 'snore' (at least that's what my husband says). My mouth just 'opens' and then dries out. Anyone got any ideas on what I can use to keep my mouth shut at night? Rose from PA

I find it hilarious that you have posted this because I too have the same exact problem ever since losing all this weight-prior to I NEVER slept with my mouth open-I hate waking up in the morning, my mouth is sooooooo dry etc, I cant brush my teeth and drink something fast enough-If you find a solution please let me know-my husband used to use a cpap(?)machine for snoring and he doesnt anymore so he said I could have the binder that he had to use to put around his head and chin that kept his mouth closed-I may have to try that is its some what confortable-haha Lori

duct tape would probably work Jen

You know Rose, I had the same problem before my WLS and now it has gone completely away and I don't snore either like I used to. I hated waking up in the morning with a dry mouth, it really bites. I just dealt with having a glass of water by the bed and drink that when I woke during the night, but sorry no real solutions. ~~Norma~~

I wonder why this is I have had the same problem lately to ? How weird....I used to snore so much my husabdn would go to the couch or wake me up, now he says I never snore...... GOOD TO MAKE A CONNECTION Tori

OMG Rose! Same thing here! Pre-op, I was mistaken for a bear on one too many camping trips... now no snoring, but my mouth is open. Tommy always makes fun of me
