This is my 4th pregnancy, but cant remember....... but Im 36 weeks and have been on bedrest since I was 25 weeks for preterm labor. Im also on Brethine to stop contractions, But Ive been having around 15 or more Braxton Hicks Contractions daily, Have a strong urge to clean my entire house from top to bottom, which is driving me crazy since Im supposed to be on bedrest....and I have been extremely moody and queasy feeling for a couple of days now. Could these be signs labor is nearing? How soon did you start getting that nesting instinct before you went into labor. Im just curious about others experiences...Not asking for medical advice since my doctor knows already. Just others stories about nesting and how you felt before labor began. Thanks..:)

That's about when mine hit -- so sorry you are on bedrest, but hopefully all will be fine!
Just an idea - how to satisfy that "cleaning" feeling that I know is SO strong - have your friends and family come over for a cleaning bee, and a potluck meal. You will love the smells of all the cleaners, and hopefully this could vicariously help solve your urge, and you'll get some friendly company at the same time.

I'm a clean freak to begin with but at the end of my pregnancy I cleaned obsessively for about 2 weeks before I actually went into labor...Good Luck!

I am 32 wks and have been getting spurts to clean the house also. I am high risk and not suppose to be doing much.. so I try to clean here and there.. but I know it will hit me soon.. and I will not able to stop it. Good luck and try to take it easy.
