I have been nesting like CRAZY! And not just a little. I made my poor hubby go out and buy over 100 containers and have now organised EVERYTHING in my house. I never nested with the other 3. Is this nesting? Does this mean I will have my baby soon? Is this normal? lol Thanks

LOL No you are not crazy! It just feels like it! LOL

I never nested with my first child. However with my second child, for the last two weeks I totally showed the symptoms of nesting. Throughout the majority of my pregnancy I didn't cook-however, during those last two weeks, I went CRAZY in the kitchen! I was cooking these huge meals (I cooked enough for 5-6 people AND still had leftovers!). Then I went crazy with the laundry- I was washing and drying everything in sight! And let's not even talk about the cleaning-my place was so clean, you could eat off of the floor, LOL! Yes, nesting IS normal-it's simply your hormones. What's funny is my cycle is about to start and I started "nesting" yesterday myself-I was cleaning EVERYTHING in my apartment, organizing everything-it was crazy! LOL It reminded me of when I was pregnant. So relax-its just your hormones. But yeah, I would say to be cautious-more than likely your baby is on it's way....Good luck!!

It is perfectly normal. Around the fifth month of pregnancy, the "nesting" instinct can set in. This is an uncontrollable urge to clean one's house brought on by a desire to prepare a nest for the new baby, to tie up loose ends of old projects and to organize your world.

"The shift in a woman’s hormones and the understandable course of powerful emotions centered around having a child often trigger the instinct to nest".

For some, this behavior occurs in the waning days and weeks of pregnancy while others begin to contemplate nesting immediately upon conceiving.

lol, I'm 34 weeks along now and I'm nesting like crazy. I always had a thing against cleaning the bathroom, now its like I'm cleaning it every day. I never really understood how moms could keep houses clean, but now it's all coming to reality. Today I'm buying shelves and a dresser for our house, something I've been waiting forever to do. LoL, congrats on your baby.

That sounds exactly like nesting to me. I am 39 weeks, and I have been going through the same thing now for about a week. I tore my fridge apart and cleaned it top to bottom, same with my closets and storage room. And thats on top of all the normal housework Im doing too! Hopefully you are getting close and good luck!

i be responsive to the variety you experience...and im basically 31 weeks!!!! It started a week in the past. i in my view scrubbed each and all the bathing room tiles ( floor and all) the different day and it rather is initiating to get rather problematical. i basically decide for to sit down and unfasten up, however the smallest issues are bugging me. i'm continuously getting the Ajax out and going over each and every floor, which doesnt help because of the fact I also have a yearning for the scent of ajax too! i'm majorly stressing related to the infant cot, thinking I could desire to bathe and re wash the sheets because of the fact they have too plenty "dirt " on them...it rather is driving me insane! and that i nevertheless have 9 greater weeks with any luck!!!! and one element it rather is fairly bugging me is the floor. I cant mop it, because of the fact it hurts when I do, so i basically could desire to sit down back and concentration on how badly i decide for to bathe it, yet cant!

if you are close to your due date, your nesting should now include organizing your hospital overnight bag. nesting does happen just before your ready to have your baby. good luck and congrats.

Wow, if you get bored at your house, mine needs to be organized too, lol...
I always "nested" within a week of my kids showing up, so who knows....
