Cold/cough medication?!

Can you ladies help me? Its the weekend and not an emergency so I don't want to call my doc but I've developed a nasty/painful cough. It started out like allergies, runny nose, scratchy throat, headache. Now I've got this horrible cough. I would usually take delsym but I'm thinking at 24 weeks pregnant I probably can't. Is there anything I can take? I've been using saline nose spray, tylenol(pretty sure I'm immune now) cough drops and sleeping with a humidifier. Any advice? thanks!!!!
