Re: anyone else preggers with #2 when #1 is an 8 month old?
Hi BeyondExcited. I actually laughed at your post when I first read it because it brought back so many memories (and yes, his being immobile is definitely a plus). I'm actually pregnant with my 3rd (my son is now 5 and my little girl almost 4). But I was in your situation when I got pregnant with my daughter. My sopn was 9 months old I was already 6 weeks pregnant. 
It takes getting used to but things do get better. As you know, your first trimester is the hardest, but it sounds like you're doing all you can (sleeping when he sleeps and going to bed early). My best advice would be to simply listen to your body and only do what you can. You won't help yourself by doing too much too soon. Your goal at this point is to get through your first trimester while taking care of your son. Once in your 2nd trimester you will start to get into the groove of things, even as he starts to become mobile.
As always, drink lots of fluids, eat food that are good for you and that will give you energy and REST as often as you can. He's NOT the boss of you (although I know it definitely feels that way sometimes).

Not an 8 month old but I have an 11 month old and all he wants to do is move EVERYWHERE and get into EVERYTHING! Ugh and I'm so exhausted! It will only get more fun when he starts walking.

It's exhausting! I was pregnant with #2 when my daughter was 5 months old. I would nap when she would nap, but still I was SO tired!!! 
My two are 2 1/2 and 1 1/2 now and it's constant activity. Fun though!!!
