Tired of clutter!

Hello ladies,

 I really notice the clutter in my house more than ever now that I know baby # 2 is on the way. Our basement is unfinished so all of our stuff is piled down their in Rubbermaides and such. We have a small house so we will have to move our office to the basement in order to have another baby room. I just don't have the energy and enough time in the day to work on the little clutter things that drive me crazy. Is this nesting already or just my sensitivity?? I don't want to be stressed but I feel like nothing is ever going to get done in time because my DH is too busy working to keep up with the finances since I stay at home. Will this stress ever end?

 I guess I am venting!

I work super hard and even thought this is baby #1 for us I feel the same way.  I feel like I am so tired after work I have no energy to keep up with the house.  I carved out 3 hours the other day, even though I had a ton to do and was exhausted, and did some clutter cleanup.  How about trying to time block a couple hours when you can?  Doing something about it, even if it's a small something, will probably make you feel better.

I felt that way too since I became pg with #2.  I am also a SAHM and DH is also very busy working OT to pay bills.  I keep telling myself that the fatigue and M/S of the first trimester will subside soon and I will feel more like myself. We are going to find out the sex when possible so we don't have to worry about buying bedding and all of the moving around until then too.  Take it in stride.  Do what you can but make sure you rest.  There's a little person inside of you and I think that sometimes I need to give myself a little more of a break for that.
