Can't cope with this tiredness

I'm 25 weeks with my 4th. I feel like I can't cope anymore with how exhausted I feel. I don't work as I ahve a toddler. I go to bed early every night and have at least an hours nap every day. Physically can't get through the day if I don't nap. Iron is fine so it's not that. I do the bare minimum housework. Eat and drink plenty even though I'm still being sick most days. Anyone else like this? I feel like I'm not coping.

27 weeks here and have a toddler. I’m so incredibly tired all the time. I’d go to bed now if I could.

Yep me too. I had a 2 hour nap today and I feel so completely drained it's unreal.

20 weeks with the most chill toddler in the world, and ditto. I keep inadvertently falling asleep on the sofa while the toddler is napping and only waking myself up when I snore. Housework is the bare essentials atm. I don't remember it being this hard first time around.

I have woken myself up from a snooze on the sofa by my own loud snore, more times than I care to remember! This is my 4th pregnancy and definitely wasn't this tired any other time. I was working all the way through my last pregnancy and although I was tired, I didn't feel this overwhelming exhaustion. I'm glad I'm not the only one though as speaking to friends, they all had loads of energy and don't really understand.
