Does this sound like I'm nesting?

Question

I'm 37 weeks & 2 days pregnant with my 2nd baby. I woke up today with a burst of energy. I ended up rearranging my entire living room & game room. I had my fiance help me, and we moved furniture back and forth and completely flipped both rooms around. Not one thing is in the same place. lol. I even took down all pictures and put them all in different locations. I also set up the babies playpen & his swing in the living room so that everything would be ready and in place when he comes. One less thing I would have to worry about. I cleaned the entire kitchen & cooked a big meal for my fiance. Lately I have been so lazy that I just make little easy microwave dinners or something very simple. My entire body now feels like one huge ache. My feet are kililng me, my back, everything. But the house looks great! LOL. Does this sound like it could be nesting? How long after nesting, did you all go into labor?

Answer 1

I think I might be nesting too then.... however I'm not pregnant.. I just had a burst of energy and we have 3 weeks til the wedding. Perhaps it is anticipation of big things to come that make us get all hyper and have to change things within our control... b/c very soon things will be out of our hands. lol!

Answer 2

ahah ive been "nesting" for 2 weeks and im only 35 weeks. i know exactly how you feel where at the end of the day your feet hurt, your knees hurt, your back hurts everything hurts...except your eyes ha i love just sitting there at the end of the day saying wow, the wood floors are mopped, everything dusted, all the laundry is done. i just go PSYCHO and clean the house. ha last night it was like 11:30 and me and my boyfriend are getting into bed to relax and i say "omg where are we going to put the crib AND the chair we dont have room for all this. and oh my god look at how dusty that air duct is" and he says "would you shut up and stop worrying about this right now. its almost midnight just freekin relax for once" HA i laughed becuase he was so right.

ANYWAYS, nesting isnt really a sign of labor but it does happen to alot of women as they come to an end. good luck

Answer 3

Answer 4

It sounds like nesting.

Nesting doens't mean you will go into labor soon though... It can be weeks after nesting that labor comes on.

I know...not the answer you want to hear, but your baby will be in your arms soon enough.
