nesting after pregnancy?

Alright, I know it sounds strange.

I am having a belated nesting phase. At least I feel like it. My son is almost ready to crawl. He will probably be crawling in a week from now. I am NOT prepared. The house has been in shambles. For the past two days, all I have been doing is cleaning like mad and organizing. I never knew we had so many socks hidden in various places.

Anyone else go through this right before they knew their little one was going to "take off!" I just can't stop organizing and preparing. There are so many things in this house that would be considered a hazard for him....so many. With Nate's stuff everywhere, and a semi-open floor plan between the living and family room - I am going crazy. Not too mention just so many outlets and the dangerous cheap blinds we have in this house. It was much easier when we lived in the other house in AZ with Nathan. We had an open floor plan there but there was only one room.

I think I am going to get three gates to close everything off to one room. In addition, I need to find a good fireplace gate. Anyone have suggestions for these?

Hey Karin! No worries! It will happen again when they start walking! There are some really great accordian style gates that you can use as play yards or to fence off naughty portions of your home such as the fireplace, stairs, torture chamber, etc. I actually have an excellent one that i will send you if you want. PM me if you want it-freebie.

It's not nesting hun- I get that all the time! Bouts of energy that make me clean the whole house top to bottom and rearrange furniture Laughing
