  I think I probably started a couple weeks ago (about 28-29 weeks).  It got into full force this weekend when I forced DH to spend most of Saturday helping me clean the house and organize the baby's stuff.  I was amazed at how much satisfaction I got out of folding blankets and stacking them on a shelf.  Now I want to get more baby stuff so that I can organize that, too!  (This is particularly weird because I am not usually a super-organized person).

  I am always nesting!  We started working on the nursery pretty much from my BFP.  I'm constantly organizing stuff and cleaning - I honstly can't imagine it getting any worse, but appearently it does?

  I don't feel like I've truly begun the obsessive nesting yet. In general I'm a neat freak, but I haven't gotten the clean-and-organize every nook and cranny of the house urge yet. We have done some major reorganizing and made big progress on the nursery, but I'm guessing the real nesting will begin once I have baby clothes/blankets, etc. to wash and organize.

  I've had the urge to clean out closets and organize them, I started on that a couple of weeks ago. And I got the nursery room emptied out so it's ready for paint and furniture.

  Yes!  I started washing all of Logan's clothes and organizing them into sizes/seasons/holidays, etc.  It's been a daunting task, but it needed to be done!

  Now I am all sad that we don't have more room! LOL

  I started "nesting" late one night after work and my water broke early that next morning. Around 38w

  It was funny we were remodeling our bathroom and DH had set the last tile while I was getting the changing table ready. I remeber DH looking at me and going "please stop, you are scaring me!" I guess he just knew she was comming too.

  oh and the best is that we were living with my IL's while we were remodling and once we got back to their house around 11pm I had asked DH to get a pack of diapers out of the car and he insisted that it could wait and I kept telling him NO I need them NOW, I want them now. my FIL got them for me. When we left for the hospital MIL looked at all of us and said "well she told you she needed those diapers!"

  No I am not nesting but thats bc we are moving on August 1. Hopefully once we move in I get in full nesting mode bc I will only have like 6 weeks until due date and I have a lot to do.

  I'd say it officially started a few weeks ago when we put up our crib and wall decal - we've since been rearranging the house, cleaning out closets, making the most of our space, ordering more stuff for the nursery - and on the agenda for in the next couple weeks is to give our base boards and our kitchen a REALLY good cleaning in preparation for baby.

  I started about two weeks ago.  I am on summer vacation, so it is the perfect time to get started.  My mom has come over and helped me clear stuff out for storage, reorganizing, and yard sale.  We had to clear out the spare bedroom for the nursery, so we moved the bed into the office.

  I can't wait until the OCD cleaning nesting kicks in cuz I'm kind of a lazy housekeeper!
