Severe exhaustion

Looking for some support... I am 15 weeks pregnant with my 2nd & have an 18 month old. This 2nd pregnancy wasn’t planned, I wanted to wait until my 1st was 3 or 4 before thinking about a 2nd. My 1st has only just started sleeping through the night but just will not go to bed before 9pm & I just go to bed with him as I am dead on my feet by that time. The pregnancy tiredness has really hit me hard this time, i thought it would pass by the end of the 1st trimester but it hasn’t. I feel like my days are a blur as I juggle work & my LO & I can’t remember the last time I had a break & some time for myself & I feel like I never will ever again! I feel emotional, crying a lot & I feel my partner does not understand my tiredness. Everyone around me keeps talking excitedly about my pregnancy but i find it difficult to feel the same. I had a complicated delivery with my 1st too & really struggled with the feeding so I am dreading going through that again so soon.
Can someone tell me that this exhaustion I have will go away so that I can actually start to think clearly about my pregnancy? And how the heck I am going to deal with 2 under the age of 2? And how I can start looking fwd to it? I Feel so guilty for feeling the way I feel :-(

I just remember mine being normal but lower than usual and taking Floridix and feeling better but I think the hideous tiredness is just hormonal. I fell asleep with my legs in the air one day. It was true JY awful so I’m just sending sympathy Cake
