Being woken up early because I'm snoring

I have to be up at 630am every day, 7 days a week. It's because I care for animals (my job, not pets), so there really never is a lie in. My DH has to be up early 6 days a month. To be fair, this is because of a shift pattern where he works horrible hours, like nights shifts etc, but he still can lie in, if he chooses, for 24 days a month.

This morning, apparently I was snoring, so at 540am, he woke me up by doing a huge sigh and kind of banging his arm on the mattress. I couldn't get back to sleep. He however then fell back to sleep, and proceeded to snore (!) and is still in bed now. He will most likely get up at about 9am.

AIBU to be annoyed at this, or is it fair enough because I was snoring? I know it's not really relevant, but the fact that I never get a lie in, unless we are on holiday, makes me more resentful of being woken up at 540am.

I agree with those saying it's time for separate bedrooms or just a bed somewhere else in your home that you can retreat to.

I jab dh in the ribs until he turns over when he snores. The alternative is I lie there fuming about how I can't get to sleep with every snore reminding me that he's asleep and I'm not.

Nope the person making the noise gets woken up to roll over . You have sone chance of getting back to sleep. Your partner has zero chance of sleeping with you snoring 😴.
