  I have really bad back and I can't do it all in in one go....I try and do one room at a time and then rest, then the next room.  Music help keep me going too.

  I listen to an audiobook on my iPod while cleaning. Then I don't even pay attention to all the cleaning I'm getting done!

  One room at a time - and if you don't know where something goes, put it in the basement :-P.. oh and if you haven't used it in forever, throw it out.

  My house has been a wreck for about a month. I just can't find the energy!

  I was totally thinking about hiring a cleaning lady to come in to bring us up to speed. Unfortunately, I don't think that folding and putting away laundry is on their list.

  The best money I spend every week is on a cleaning lady! Amazing.

  I like the book on ipod idea though.

  I usually enjoy cleaning, but I have simply been too tired and oh the smells.  I told DH that he was going to have to handle housekeeping for a while.  That was over a month ago and so far he has done.... nothing.  I started showering in the guest bathroom because I couldn't handle the smell in the master.  So, I think I'm going to have to give in and do some cleaning too.

  I feel ya. I have just had no energy to clean the house. I did a major clean about a week ago and now just need to pick up, but I get home after work and just want to sit and relax. I know what I will be doing this weekend. Ugh I hate cleaning.

  Definitely with music as others have said.  I also like making a list and I truly enjoy just crossing things off...don't know why, but it gives me a little adrenalin rush.  I'll be working that list tonight after golf...hopefully I can find energy for it somewhere...maybe I'll take a nap at my desk during lunch.
  

  We've talked about getting a cleaning lady...just haven't pushed the button yet.  I have some OCD issues on cleaning what and in what order and how...so I would need to force myself out of that mindset first...the more tired I get, the more and more I'm thinking about it though.

  Good luck with everything!  Are you making your announcement when they are in?  If so, any plans for how you are going to announce?

  Dont clean too much!!

  We had family stay with us two weeks after my BFP and I spent two days cleaning and making sure everything was perfect.

  With in ten minutes we had shoe prints on the clean hardwood floors, baby stuff all over the countertops, and suitcases on the clean sheets and linens.

  Surface clean, light some candles, and I always set the coffee pot and make a tray with teas, breakfast bars, sugar, sweet-n-low, cereal, mugs, spoons,  and bowls for in the morning. That way if I sleep in they can help themselves!
