Terrible blocked nose during pregnancy

Hi mummies! Wondering if anyone also experienced blocked/ stuffy nose during your pregnancy, especially at night time? I have difficulties in breathing thus affected the sleep quality. What do you do to improve the situation? Thanks!

I was diagnosed with pregnancy rhinitis since 25 weeks! Been having runny nose, stuffed nose, cold symptoms and cough from post-nasal drip especially at night. I try to cope by sleeping sitting up or taking Zyrtec when it becomes unbearable. My gynae approves me taking Zyrtec for my symptoms and it seems to help! I only take 5ml dose and the liquid one that’s meant for children. Also, can ask hubby to apply Vicks on chest, back, nose & throat before sleep. 😊
