I was having a lot of back pain during pregnancy, so I was eager to find a natural supplement that could help it.

Since a CPAP machine essentially forces air into the respiratory system, it's important to keep the entire machine clean. Respiratory infections from using a CPAP machine are quite rare, but a CPAP machine can potentially cause them if mold and bacteria are allowed to build up in the machine as these pathogens would be blown directly into the respiratory system.
