Dry cough.
My wife has a lot of dry cough for the past 3 days. She is unable to sleep. The moment she puts her head down she starts coughing. Please keep in mind that she is 6 months pregnant.

That is usually due to acid reflux when the uterus falls back on stomach. Ask your wife to sleep on her right side. Consult a good ENT Specialist near you (use the Practo app to select the right based on qualification, experience and positive reviews) to examine, confirm & manage this condition.
