Hi Sleepy head,

Yes it dreadful waking up with a dry mouth.....I had a few hiccups with it. I'd be sleeping and my mouth falls open, but the blast of air gushing out my mouth is enough to wake me up.

So fortuntely I am am able close my mouth and fall asleep again. But I had few time when my mouth keep falling open, before I wake in the morning it happens a few times.

So I try to sleep partly with my mouth buried in my pillow to avoid my mouth falling open when I don't want it be open. Making sure that the exhust hole of my mask is not blocked.

it seem to work me so far, sleeping with you face half buried in the pilliow!!! It stops my mouth from falling open
