The nesting instinct.....

I guess this stage must have started, been finding my self cleaning all sorts of weird places and at crazy times of the day and night.

The other night I couldn't sleep and ended up pulling everything out of the draws at 3.00 am only to fold everything back up and put it away again, it 's like I was compelled to do it I wasn't getting back to sleep if it wasn't done.

Last night it was the laundry and bathrooms turn, How long does this weird cleaning urge usually go on for? I've been ordered to rest due to high BP, but I can't stand not doing anything it's driving me nuts.

nzlisajo - there's still plenty of time,  my nesting instinct has only just kicked in in the last week, and now that it has the whole house has had a a spring clean, the only place I haven't cleaned yet is the garage and thats next on my list.. lol

well woke up at 4am with contractions, mid wife checked me an hour ago and all action stations are go I'm in estabilished labour, guess that might explain the mad rush to clean the place from top to bottom, think the garage will have to wait, much to sore to worry about that now lol

Thanks Ladies, Guess the nesting instinct kicking in must of been my bodies way of trying to tell me she was going to come early.

The birth was a rather shattering experience 19.5 hrs labour, of the hardest work I have ever done in my life, made a little harder by the fact my little one decided to enter the world in a prosterior position, making the escape route a little harder to negotiate, lucky for me I have rather wide hips which worked in my favour and after 1.5 hrs of pushing she was born without any assisted help, she was 8lbs 8oz.
