Dreamwear: air out the top?

I too have the mask, and find it very comfortable but was experiencing a lot of leaks. I have tried all the different frames and cushion combos, but like the poster above, one way I am proved quite a bit was to make sure my mouth was closed during the night. A chin strap was too uncomfortable for me, so I found a really interesting Solution on Amazon, which basically is a small piece of tape with a hole in the middle to allow for some breathing, (sleep strips from Somnifix) while still keeping your mouth closed at night. I was a little skeptical before trying, but in general I found that this is a good, inexpensive solution and allowed me to avoid a chin strap.

That being said, even with that Improvement, the leak I experienced now, usually after I've been asleep for many hours, is from the top out of the sides next to my nose. If I simply push up a bit on the mask, it stops instantly, but I find that it's very easy for this to happen and is quite annoying when I wake up at night. Let's try tightening the top of it, as I've only used CPAP therapy in general for a few weeks, so I'm still learning.

Like the comfort of this mask, and leaking is a problem, I would highly suggest making sure that keeping her mouth closed won't fix the problem. They were called Sleep strips by Somnifix. You can Google it on Amazon, but I got a pack of 50 for $10 or something like that. How quickly you get used to it, and the small hole in the middle is plenty for those that are mouth breathers and concerned about not fully breathing through their nose (for me anyway).
