My four year old snores. I mean she sounds like a lawnmower, just like her father. Some nights are worse than others. But I think it is getting more frequent.
Is this common? I am so mad at myself, I just had her at the doctor last week getting her immunizations and check up for kindergarten, and I meant to ask my doctor, got sidetracked and completely forgot about it.
 
So should I take her back? My other three have never done this, so this is new to me.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

    It may be worth a visit, as it could be a deviated septum.... found early treated early no more problems...
     
    Has she been very tired lately? this could be a sign of exhaustion snoring....
     
    Having two in the hosue could be really really annoying though.... I feel for you but more for my husband as I am a regular snorer.... not every night but a lot I think it happens more around my period actually.

    i would call the pediatrician's office and just ask over the phone. 
    i've heard of kids snoring, but just to be safe, i'd ask.

    I would call and ask. I was told by an anesthesiologist that snoring as a child is a red flag for sleep apnea and deviated septum as Lucy pointed out.... could be exhaustion or getting sick (stuffed nose) but i would just ask to make sure.

I feel so completely empty. I've been so depressed lately that I can't seem to remember when I became this way. What happened to me? I can't be happy anymore. I can't bring myself to do any of the things I used to like. All I want to do is sit around and...

Well last night my darling wife was in a very playful mood and kept teasing and interupting me as I was trying to read my book.
I warned her that if she kept on it would be her getting a spanking instead of me for a change.
She ignored me so a...
