Second pregnancy feeling exhausted

Just wana see if anyone else is going through the same, this is my second baby I’m pregnant with and I have a 2 year old. This pregnancy has flawed me, I literally have no energy and I’m so tired. I feel so guilty not doing much with my 2 year old but I just don’t have the energy😩 she does go to nursery and my family take her swimming etc but like today I have her on my own and I don’t have the energy to take her out

I've a 4 and 2yr old and expecting in Dec. I'm exhausted. My previous pregnancies were a lot easier. I find rallying to get out mid morning to go somewhere where they'll be other things going on really helpful. And while I do have to be "on the go" it's easier once we're actually out the door. I do about three days a week with them on my own, but I ask my oh on days where I'm really tired to WFH and he'll help me get them ready to go out which I find the hardest bit. We do "gardening" most days and I have a chair outside. I have to move about a lot but if I start by getting on with weeding they often find ways to occupy themselves and then ice there in full swing I can sit down for a bit here and there.
And then late afternoon I do telly. It is really hard. Xx

I’m the same. This pregnancy has been tiring physically and mentally. I have a 4 year old, and working as well. I feel really overwhelmed and overstimulated on top of feeling so anxious this time round. You’re not alone x
