Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Breathlessness during your pregnancy can harm your baby.
Dry cough needs to be treated with home remedies.
Avoid cough suppressants as it contains codeine .
Stress incontinence is a common problem in pregnancy.
Practice pelvic exercises.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
