Nesting?

It seems like all I think about lately is getting EVERYTHING ready for my ds to get here! I've heard that women usually have their babies shortly after this phase. Is that just an old wives tale? Unlike you lucky ladies due in early August, I'm not due until the 27th

I'm soooo ready to have this baby! I know you all know what I mean lol

LOL! I've been nesting since we started trying to conceive! I've always been an organizer and I love to clean, but yes, I've been nesting a lot lately too... even at work! I'm not sure if it's an old wives tale or not. I've also heard the women get a burst of energy (which can sometimes lead to nesting) several days before they go into labor. If not it looks like you are going to have a super clean and organized house since you have four weeks to go!!! Take Care!

I started nesting early with Charlie!! It would come and go in waves! LOL! Charlie was born 2 days after my lst big nesting phase. At that point I felt "ready" for her to come home so she decided she would do just that. On the other hand, I nested big time for weeks with Rylie and I wound up being induced because she wanted to stay in.

Old wives tales are fun, but not too reliable.

Good luck!

I don't know if nesting means you're going to give birth really soon, but man, do I hope so! I have been nesting like CRAZY the last couple of days. I'm not due until the 22nd, but I'm thinking she HAS to come early. I have a TON of pressure/pain in my pelvis- I think she must be engaged already. DH was born 2 weeks early, so I'm hoping this little girl will take after him... but sooner than that would be ok, too. I am ready and raring to go!

Karen (24), DH (26), Expecting our first, Anna Elizabeth 8/22/10!!! Woohoo!
