extreme nesting has arrived!!!!!

Despite the fact I'm "supposed " to be on best rest. After putting the kids to bed, husband left for work,  "thought " Id enjoy some popcorn & a movie...  that was three hours ago..

Ended up cleaning out the fridge,  defrosting the freezer,  cleaned out all closest & cabinets,  windows, deep cleaned both bathrooms, cleaned oven, & still wanting to clean!!!  

There's really nothing left but I'm far from tired, & still have this really feel earge to clean! Something,  anything!!  The walls??
Am I still sane??  hahauhah... ah...

Omg I was so tired today and laid on the couch all morning, my body said no but my brain said get up and clean. Well I cleaned even some of the walls!!! I had already got extreme nesting about a month ago that resulted in me cleaning closets and all. So for me its on and off I guess. Maybe for you its a sign! Good luck!!

Its been on and off for me as well, Id get random energy to clean but it wouldn't last long. This lasted 6 hours... stayed up all night lol

My husband came home from work like" Either you found a new man or your nesting kicked in " lol

But I'm happy I got it all done. That way o won't have to do much once I get home from the hospital.  Even though my 6&2 year old seem to think once the house is clean it's time to mess it up again. :-/ pfftt
Ohhhh geez! 6 hours! Wow!! Lol. Yeah my Kids are the same and my two year old!!! Omg my two year old!!! He is so baaaaad! Its like he loves to see me struggle right now Lol. You're sooooo close though!! How exciting!!! How many days is it for you now?

Best to ask your Dr,  but... if you want to post a question for others to see, it would be best to post it on the main page. Goodluck!

Although I've heard the myth that it means baby is around the corner it's not actually true lol Ive had this twice already (I'm only 26 weeks) but I think the nerves closer to the time contribute to your maternal urges. Good luck and congrats

Sounds like this baby might want to make an appearance sooner than expected. Some people say it's a sign when extreme nesting kicks in!!

Have some warm milk if you can stomach it? It's supposed to help you calm down and make you sleepy. Though I know it makes a lot of pregnant women want to throw up! Lol
