Hi everyone

I am looking to crowdsource advice for things i may not be doing or may be overlooking for my wife. She is in the 1st trimester of her second pregancy. We just had our first 5 months ago so she is paricularly exausted this time around.

Just some of the things i am doing.

Getting up with the baby in the morning.

All feedings and nappy changes that i am available to do.

Washing bottles

Washing laundry

Making meals

General chores

Small requests (drinks, snacks etc)

Taking the baby as soon as i get home from work (and staying in a different room) so my wife can rest

Taking the baby out during the weekends so she can nap.

I consider myself to be a thoughtful partner but i just feel such helplessness with her energy levels, she wakes up tired.

Is there anything im missing or anything you have experienced to beat the initial exaustion?
