I sleep with a glass of water by my bed. Whenever I wake, I take a sip. It helps, but doesn't stop it completely.

Perfectly normal. I'm 17+2 and this happens to me every night. According to my app,  bodily secretions increase at this stage, such as mucus, sweat and vaginal discharge.

The stuffy nose causes you to sleep with your mouth open/snore, causing dry mouth and a sore nose.
