How long after you ladies started "nesting" did your little one arrive?

    For me, nesting means throwing out a lot of crap and reorganizing what crap I do have. So, I've been nesting since I was 13. ;)

    I don't know if I'd call it nesting, but I've been a lot more organized and into keeping things clean since I got pregnant this time. I have a sort of urgent feeling to make sure I have a routine down before I'm home alone with a newborn and a two year old.

    I'm not even 100% sure what nesting is exactly.  I do feel the need to get stuff done before baby gets here but it comes in fits and spurts.  Maybe that is how I nest?  It isn't ever cleaning though (DH wishes!) but more like getting the nursery done because, while I know I can do it after baby, I just don't want to worry about it later.

    I just moved to a new house this weekend, nesting is in full effect. Baby's room is coming along...I'm still unpacking all his stuff. But I started the hospital bag just in case.

    100% this.  I don't feel like I ever nested with DD1.  Granted, I had more productive days than others.  Although I really think that had more to do with my work schedule, and how much sleep I had gotten the night before, than anything else.  I always just think of it as something people say when you're doing baby related stuff, and not some urge I had, but maybe I am weird.  Meh.  :-??
    This.  All of it.  I don't feel like I ever nested with ds1, but all the baby stuff eventually got put in a place and a few cabinets got cleaned as a result.

    I was nesting with DS1 from the start. I don't believe there is any corelation between it and when baby will arrive.

    I never nested with DD and she came on her due date. At that rate, I should have never gone into labor.

    Yes, for real. [-( I didn't say nesting was or wasn't a sign of the baby's arrival. My mother has bugged me with this old wise take since I've started "nesting", so I wanted her to see everyone's opinion on the baby's arrival after they got started or didn't start, to see the comparisons. But to everyone else with a more positive reply she appreciates it ;)

    Supposedly when you start nesting you are getting ready for your little one to arrive, that it will being coming soon & your instincts are taking over.

    I'm sure two is too big of a number for some people. :-@
    & I guess the Birth Club isn't for questions, concerns, or just general thoughts..only smartass comments from "grown" women. I used to love this app but it's turned just like any other social site. I-)

    Everyone can see the posts, not just expecting mothers. The vaginal pains post was not posted today.
    My point from that reply was simple, this is a place to discuss whatever/whenever you feel the need to and how ever many random thoughts or questions get discussed shouldn't be of concern.

    Devil's advocate....the vag pain one wasn't created today.  And I have a lot of aunts who tell me that nesting means the baby is coming soon (now, what does soon mean?).  And the birth weight one, well that one is sort of interesting to me because I think at a certain point guessing on weight should just not happen since it seems like everyone knows that u/s guesses aren't all that reliable.

    So I don't see what the big deal is?  Random questions, yes...but nothing offensive or rude or eye roll worthy IMO.

    Haha I'm going to agree. They don't both me either. They make it seem like we do actually talk about pregnancy on here. Have to meet the quota...at least 2 pregnancy related posts per day.  So thanks OP for meeting that for us today!

    Anyone have the Yoda gif that says something like "the butthurt is strong in this one" ?

    Just curious..

    Feeling disrespected will turn my positivity around. I don't just ask questions to "run away", I don't like staying on the internet 24/7 or necessarily have the time to. But the one day I do, I get rude replys because my questions aren't worthy. I will not be unnecessarily disrespected & I wouldn't expect anyone else to be either.

    Some mothers feel a burst of energy when they're in early labor. They get everything ready and remember little things they forgot to prep in advance, and go do them too. This is the "nesting" OP is referring to...a restlessness in early labor that some women feel. It's hormonal and normal and all that jazz.

    Now my constant desire from about 16 weeks onward to reorganize every cabinet and closet in my home is directly related to panic and wanting to be prepared for baby, and has very little to do with the onset of labor. ;)

    ETA: Just read the rest of the thread and that pizza made me soooo hungry... =P~

    I can't really answer any questions seeing this is my first baby, I love to read everyone's experiences but I don't like to see all the negitivity. That's all I was trying to get across.

    Welcome to the internet, sweetheart. Negativity abound!

    In all seriousness though, we are a pretty awesome group.
