How do you manage it with having other small kids. Tiredness and in my case pregnancy which is heavy!

Luckily OH deals with the rugby and I generally do swimming which even with the baby isn't a problem as she will stay in her car seat while DD1 gets changed. Rather than showering there like before we now do it at home after as that's a bit tricky.

After school clubs is just a different pick up so if needed I feed slightly earlier
