Post Mask recommendations? 
I am a stomach sleeper and have been having a horrible time finding a mask I can actually fall asleep and stay asleep with.  I have tried the Hybrid, the Respironics Comfort Lite 2, the ResMed Mirage Activa.  Does anyone have a suggestion for a mask that may work for me?

Need more details on what did not work for you on the masks you tried so far.  Did they leak, if so where and when?  Did they hurt... where and when?

I am a side/stomach sleeper new to CPAP. My Remstar auto and full life maskshould be here early next week

I will let you know how I do with the full life mask.

Looks promising.

TXladybug, thank you for the reply.  The problem is not with any leakage, but in how I sleep.  With me being a stomach sleeper, my face is on th epillow and the mask gets shifted.  It is distracting more than uncomfortable, but keeps me from being able to fall asleep.
