3rd Trimester

Late nesting

Nesting like nobody's business, but just a few weeks too late. I am aching from head to toe from a weekend of cleaning and organizing. The baby's room is ready and my 3 year old daughter's room is free of old toys and organized in a way that I hope to keep it clean easily. I was so tired tonight I actually overreacted over spilled water then cried later in guilt as I apologized toy daughter. Ugh! 32 weeks is kicking my butt!

Re: Late nesting

  • for some reason 32 weeks has ruined me all 3 of my pregnancies!!! but I felt better quickly after! like you,, I want to do SO much now (I'm 34 weeks) & find it so hard to get done -- physically! on the inside,, I'm inspired to paint every room, organize every drawer, and pick up every dog hair!!!
    I wish I could say my 3 year olds room is cleaned up--my 1 year olds is decent at least!!!!

  • If 32 week nesting is late than I'm uber late. I haven't nested yet at 36 weeks.... /:) Maybe I'm just not the nesting type....

  • I can't really nest because we're moving a month after my due date :/

    Baby is going to have to spend her first month by our bed, and all her stuff will have to just be in storage bins temporarily.  We live in a tiny one bedroom right now.

    But I want to nest soooo badly.  I want to be decorating and organizing!  
  • Late?!? You're an early bird compared to me! I'm a week and a half away from my EDD and its only just kicking in. I just went grocery shopping and got the urge to clean out the cupboards, fridge and freezer before i put any of the new stuff away. I threw away 3 bags of crap, including stuff that's been in there since Christmas. Just felt like it.

  • I've been going nonstop for a few weeks already and now I am 35w. I already took leave from work and had to stop driving (I am really short so pulling the seat up enough to drive pushes my belly into the wheel). Being home during the day all the time is making me crazy and I can't stop cleaning and organizing. The nursery has actually been done for weeks but I keep finding things to do lol.

    My hubby is actually concerned I will hurt the baby and keeps telling me to rest and take naps, but I have an anxious and creative brain and I can't *not* do anything. All baby's checkups have been fine so far but it is really tough wanting to do so much and physically tiring out quickly.

  • Im almost 36 weeks and have no urge to nest. I feel bad but I don't.
  • I haven't had a nesting urge at any point during this pregnancy, but I did move at 37 weeks so that may have used it all up.
  • 35.4 and not nesting yet! I am sure it will start...eventually...

    Wooo if 32 is late then my obsessive cleaning and organizing yesterday at 36w6d was some mad procrastination. But seriously I always associated "nesting" as that time period within 3 weeks or so of having the baby where you compulsively start doing random getting ready things as if possessed as opposed to the normal organizing, getting nursery ready, etc

  • I think nesting is a combination of restlessness and utter boredom while waiting those last few weeks!
    I'm cleaning stuff just to stay busy, and have been for the last couple of weeks (I'm 39.5 weeks)
  • ive been nesting for weeks, cleaned the house so much ive now started on outside the gardens never looked so good, ive even started painting the fences and dog run
