Actually this really depends on the dairy operation! Some dairies have cows that are allowed to roam around AND lay down comfortably if they wanted, other dairies have cows where they just stay in stanchions that are wide enough for them to lay down comfortably whenever they wanted. I've never heard of a dairy operation where they didn't have anything that allowed cows to lay down when they wanted. Maybe not so much roam around, though there's a large number of dairies have milking facilities where cows simply walk in, get milked, then walk out again to their corrals in the barn or under a shed or out to pasture if it's summer.

But basically, when they're not being milked they're eating, sleeping or laying/standing around chewing cud and socializing with other cows they're in the barn or pasture with.

Can a cow that is pregnant the second time be milked?

I believe you are meaning to say if a cow that has given birth to her first calf then bred a second time a few months later can still be milked. If that's the case, then the answer is Yes. Milk production will only slow slightly during breeding time, but she can still be able to produce milk for you to get from her.
