Schedule an appointment with your doctor so he/she can decide if you need any medications to help expel the sputum in your upper respiratory tract as I do not wich to prescribe anything for a pregnant woman through an online consultation.
As for some home remedies, the best things you can do is to stay warm, keep drinking small sips of lukewarm water through the day and try to be seated while coughing.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
