Got a little question about nesting and labor, really second time + mums would be able to answer this more......
Well im 35 weeks and over the last few weeks i have been very tiered and uncomfortable and havent had the energy to do absolutly anything, the thing is i woke up this morning and have this massive burst of energy and have been cleaning the house inside out corner to corner all day which is really unusual for me at the moment, i never experianced the nesting period with my 1st pregnancy but i think this cleaning burst is the nesting kicking in.
i just wondered how many mothers went through the nesting and if u did how long after did u go into labor as im a bit worried as im only 35 weeks and am having a planned c-section on the 14th.

Ive had no nesting insticts. Ive just been cleaning cos I have nothing else to do but cant say ive been thrilled or enthusiastic about it. x

i think its an obvious thing anyway who would want to bring a newborn home to a dirty house with nothing ready for them and no time to get it ready once they arrive lol its just something you do at the end of pregnancy as its so boring waiting the last few weeks

I need to clean but my house is a building site! In 8 weeks we need the kitchen replaced, every room redecorated and carpeted, the nursery done and two gardens landscaped! I need to nest :'( i did from about 30 weeks with my son and i went 2 weeks and 1 day over.
