Mums-to-be, Have You Got Into Clean-up Everything Mode Now That You Are Pregnant?
Good evening ladies!
Well I was just curious if anybody else here has started to “nest” – is that the right term? I realised that at 19 Weeks pregnant today, I am one week off 5 months and that time is flying!
I’m off work for a week sick – again! – and between resting I have decided to do a spring clean and get rid of a whole lot of things in the house that we don’t need and really make the house crisp and clean ready for Bub. Plus I’ll be getting a lot bigger soon so now is the best time I guess!
I always have a tidy clean house – house proud! – but I want literally just want get rid of stuff I don’t need, and free up space for more baby stuff we’ll need.
So all the stuff we want to chuck we’ll take to the local tip!
Any of you other ladies going through a similar phase? And if so – when did it hit you?
I’m actually excited about clearing everything out and the finished product.

ha ha, yes! i’m the same!!! i’m currently 19 wks 1 day (due the same day as you) with my 4th pregnancy (although this will be my 3rd live birth hopefully). i have carpet burns on my hands from handwashing my carpets, lmao. i’m also experiencing really bad backache at the minute and my fiance keeps telling me off for constantly cleaning the house- walls, floors, doors, cupboards, places that don’t even really need done! i can’t help it though- i’m obsessed. my fiance wants me to try take it easy, but everywere i look something else is annoying me. glad that someone else is in the same boat and i’m not going mad. xxx
Hi, i understand during pregnancy time , we may get worried about our household things. But dont stress yourself too much. Lisen to your body and do things accordingly. Stay hydrated all the time. Good luck.
i had this when i was about 3 months preg. and off and on since.i am trying to save up my energy for a real good organization day nearer the due date.but you need to calm down.it seems its turning into an obsession..it can happen.
cant wait to get over the fatigue and just want to clean again!!! hopefully mine hits soon i want to completely redo the house lol.
yeh totally no how u feel, im 23weeks n constantly lookin around my home thinkin it looks a mess and need to clean up again n again lol
I’m hoping I get that soon. I’m 15wks 1 day and am still just so exhausted. I’m no where near as bad as I was in my first trimester, but I still get fatigued very easy. I tried to help my husband wash cars Monday night and luckily I had the job of vacuuming and cleaning the insides so i was able to sit in the car while I did it. lol. I’ve noticed too that I get tired of standing when I’m cooking dinner and what not. But I’m sure I will get my second wind soon, especially once we find out what we are having so I can start working on the babies room. YAY!
I too get excited when thinking about the end and wanting to get there so I can see what it looks like when I’m done.
heya,
xxx
as u know im still living with mom as house isnt done yet (kitchens delivered in august whooo)
but sunday, i decided to clean my wrdrobe out as the amount of stuff in it was unreal and i threw out loadz, and also kept a bag of ‘thin’ clothes in the loft for next summer (lol my incentive to loose weight) xxx
but im 16weeks 2day and itching for the house to be done so i can go in and organise
luv and hugs xxx and get well soon xxx
For some reason i got it right before i found out and after. which was around 12wks to 17 wks.
And now I’m 20 wks and a few days, i’ve been so tired, and not in a cleaning mood especially with my 2 yr old always making messes behind me.
I’m just in the tired mood lately, and it’s been so hot here.
But yeah when i was in the cleaning mood everything was spotless and i think i would over do it, lol.
i started around that time to be very productive and get ready for the baby. it is a great time to do it because you are not huge and uncomfortable. i did that for a couple of weeks and then got really tired for a couple weeks and didnt want to do anything. now im 37 weeks and it just hit again but it is differnet now. its not cleaning things out its like scrubbing the shower for two hours and still wanting to clean it or cleaning baseboards just to reclean them 2 days later and being happy to do it. true nesting is intense and just before the baby. i think the earlier stuff is just energy from being excited to have a baby!
