Post nasal drip keeping me awake

I'm really suffering at night with a post nasal drip. As soon as I lie down to sleep the mucus drips down my throat causing me to cough (sorry TMI)and it keeps me awake all night. I'm sleeping on 4 pillows, sipping water and sucking glycerine pastilles to try to stop the tickle but to no avail.

I'm feeling tired anyway due to the pregnancy so now feel like a zombie as can't get my all-important sleep!

I had a post nasal drip during the summer and was prescribed a nasal steroid spray which was brilliant and cured it quickly but obviously can't take that now as pregnant.

Does anyone have any wonder cures??

you could try a neti pot, it's very effective.
