My Nesting Instint Kicking In ??
Posted: 06-22-07 09:56am

So I am 34 weeks today and I have been busy busy busy!! I have pulled out my fridge/freezer and cleaned and sorted everything along with all my food cupboards and my oven. I am thinking it must be nesting Confused because everyday just lately I have been sooo tired I havent had the energy to do anything, I have even been having naps in the afternoon! Smile But today I have just had this rush of energy and cant keep still!
My kitchen is gleaming and I am already thinking about how I am going to tackle my upstairs tomorrow! At least I am getting a clean house out of all this!! Smile

Yep! You're are nesting!! It's great, isn't it?? Suddenly we have all this energy that we have lacked for so long to get things done. It's crazy.

I think that I am nesting today. I have scrubbed out my fridge and microwave, scrubbed the bathrooms, been doing laundry like crazy, vacuumed, and now I am about to start scrubbing the floors.

I don't know if this is nesting or me knowing that we are moving next weekend. Phew-I am so sweaty though! Now I just need to go pack some more.....

I have day's where I go insane.
I've literally re-arranger her closet by colour and then again by size and then again by style like 5000 times!
I moved the room around... by myself , washed the floors made room for bottles in the kitchen , I'm constantly organizing!!
but then i have days where I can't move!
Like today!

I wish I were nesting today. I have done hardly any packing and cleaning and now I have to take a shower and go out to dinner with my husbands parents. It looks like I will be up all night packing. Come on nesting instinct, where in the heck are you (talking to myself)!

i couldn't nest because i was on bed rest. instead i would lay on the couch making mental notes of everything that looked like it needed cleaning. it made me very depressed.

I'm on bedrest. Well "modified" bedrest... but my last 2 appointments my bp was wayyyy better. so i dont have to take it as easy.
I got a lot of stuff done the day before I found out I had to be,
but I definately cheat sometimes...
I know thats awful but I dont exert myself as much as I'd like to , but im constantly wiping tables and fixing cushions and organizing.
Thank god for my mom though, that woman can read my mind and get's everything done.
She's amazing!

haha i feel you both on not having it when i need it. i need to do some serious packing and cleaning and all i can do right now is lay on the couch trying to motivate myself. brian has to work all day sunday so im hoping it will hit then.. more out of sheer boredom. i bought one of those huge huge pictures things that holds about 50 pictures of different shapes and sizes today and a new day timer. haha i figure i can get my fix in then without having to get up off the couch

That is so funny! I would probably just sit on the couch with my new day planner, plan everything I need to do and then say "I am too tired now, that was a lot of work!" Those huge picture things are wonderful. I bought one before nathan was born and had it filled in the first two months. I have yet to replace those pictures because they are so cute.

Bridget, I am so glad I am no longer on bed rest. Just the short time I was, it was very depressing. I couldn't imagine being on it during the last few months.

Onmyway...wow, you really go through that nesting don't you??? You actually rearrange her closet? Are you normally like that to a certain degree? You can take your little nesting self and nest for me if you are that clean and organized. Come on over!!!Smile I want to be that kind of nester. Same with you, Jolie! My fridge needs cleaning!! Laughing My excuse is that my belly is just so big it's hard for me to maneuver. Since we are moving, I will have my husband clean it out. I go through frantic, very short episodes of nest craz but I honestly go through more period of "I can't move" phases. I wonder if I will be "nesting" more when we are in the house we plan to stay. I will let you all know in a week.

Musikmaker, you are moving too??? Wow!! Good luck.

I'm a pretty organized person normally, but the closet had literally been done 4 or 5 times, and I have .A.L.O.T of stuff in there!!
Before I always made list's , in my head I can plan out how and what I want to clean, but getting arouind to it is another question , so a lot of people see me when I get going... even the way I stack mail , and it throws em for a loop!!
I wish I could come help you nest and move!
All you crazy ladies moving while pregnant!
Brave brave girls!
