Bursts of Nesting

I think nesting is finally starting to kicking in, the only thing is, its in bursts of energy!

I wake up SO pumped and ready to take on the day, and an think of a million home projects I want to do.... clean out pantry / redo coat closet / clean out drawers .etc.... I even contemplate exercising!

BUT I have to go to work, where at least I am productive, and by the time I get home all I want to do is lay down! Nothing at home is getting done, despite my best of intentions.

If only I could coordinate my nesting bursts with legitimate free time to do what I want to do.....

Re: Bursts of Nesting

  • I've been finding that my nesting compulsion has been coupled with the inability to sleep, so it's kind of worked out for me! It's like I'm on fast-forward all the time and I just don't need sleep for some reason. I've only been getting about 6 hours a night (broken), and yet I'm completely functional (I usually need about 9 solid hours).

    From after dinner until about midnight I'm up and organizing things or washing baby clothes, or moving stuff around in the nursery, or tidying up the house (I vacuumed and washed the floor at 11:30 PM the other night.....). I kind of enjoy it since I am nowhere near this motivated when not pregnant lol!

    Hope you find some time to give in to those nesting urges :)

  • THIS. EXACTLY THIS.

    I am totally the same way!!!! I have all these ideas about things I wanna get done, but like you, I'm stuck at work. By the time I get home, I'm really tired, have to figure out dinner, and don't feel motivated to do anything on my list ;(

    Weeks are slipping by and I feel more and more unprepared =/

  • I'm totally the opposite! I sit here and think about all the things I could do, but cant seem to get up the "oomph" to get up and do it. I've had to take early medical leave because the special education kids I work with are so violent. So here I am, sitting at home all day, bored out of my mind but too exhausted to do anything. I don't know which is worse, having all these good intentions and not being able to get to them, or being to tired to move. Good Luck to ya! ;)
