wondering the best mask to use for sleeping--we have a problem with ours and leaks. not sure which he wears, but it is a full mask (nasal didnt' work well at night). the problem is I get it on him with a small (30-40) leak, but he rolls a couple of times a night and it gets all messed up and starts leaking much worse so it is a lot of work to move him and adjust the whole head gear. he is not uncomfortable in it--
Another problem is sleeping on his side. his head sort of flops into the pillow so the pressure from his head will also move the mask and make it leak more. I try to prop his face up with a towel but that doesn't really work well. also saw a pillow with a cut out for a mask--anyone try that?
