Is drooling normal?
Drooling in your sleep is completely normal.
When you’re in deep sleep, you swallow less often. If you sleep on your side, saliva can escape and end up on your pillow.
The drool isn’t the problem.
The damp pillow cover is.
- Damp pillow covers can collect bacteria and allergens
- Change your pillow cover every 2–3 days if you’re acne-prone or have allergies
- Otherwise, every 3–4 days works well
Because good sleep deserves a clean pillow.
