Sleepless nights at 18 weeks

Jennifer

It’s becoming harder and harder to sleep due to my nose congestion. Now that I feel like I finally mastered a nighttime technique with the vicks vaporizer machine to clear my nose, the mucous or phlegm gets trapped in my throat and causes me to wake up gagging and coughing. Maybe it’s due to the sleep position of lying down. Thinking about sleeping in an upright position in a recliner. I just want one good nights rest before baby gets here. I’m just tired all the time. Any ideas??
