Second Trimester Exhaustion

Hi, I’m currently 18 weeks pregnant and feeling absolutely shattered. This is my second pregnancy and I have a 3 year old and understand that lots of people feel very tired with their second pregnancies but I’m really struggling and can’t function. I had my bloods done - including iron and B12 and they all came back normal. BP is a little low but not too bad. I work part time (3 days) but don’t work too hard and have lots of support with my little one. I’m just really sleepy and falling asleep all the time! I sometimes feel this is worse than the first trimester. I’m eating and drinking lots and getting lots of sleep at night. I’m at a loss! Just wondering if anyone else is feeling the same in the second trimester or if it gets any better?! Or if there is any other reason I could be feeling like this?! Not really enjoying it and I’m not looking forward to the next few months 😕
