Is anyone else "nesting"?

Does "thinking" about all those things count? I never seem to have the energy or time (of course I find time to read my message boards daily ) But I have thought about the clearing clutter and getting financial affairs stuff in order. It's nice to know some of you are really doing it. Mine just seems overwhelming to me. If I did die, my hubby would have a mess on his hands. So .... maybe I can JUST DO IT.. Thanks all... My date is April 5th so I am on the home stretch too.

I don't know about 'unintentional' nesting... but I'm cleaning house like a mad woman. My Mother-In-Law is coming! She is staying with the kids while I'm gone and it will definately be different than a regular visit, because she will be in my kitchen cooking (looking for spices, digging out pots and pans, etc), doing laundry and in general, taking over for me (bless her). I know where everything is, but for her I'm trying to organize and get everything in a logical place and order. I agree, with you, I don't know where all this energy is coming from -- of course, I have the help of an able bodied 16 yo -- which makes it easier. Lola

I'm doing it too...room by room. Two weeks ago I spent all week actually wallpapering and organizing my son's room. I've never been much of a neat freak but I see all this stuff and I can't live with it all of a sudden. I think part of it for me is that I don't wnat my mom here cleaning it for me while I'm in the hospital...that's something she'd do, she did it when I had my son. I never nested while I was pregnant (I was induced at 37 weeks so I never got the chance to I guess).

OK...so the word for what I have been doing is "nesting". I have been cleaning my closet and draws, throwing out mail, getting my finances together. I am actually getting paranoid thinking that I am forgetting to do something. I just cannot relax, my mind is always working none stop, I can't even relax my mind to go to sleep. Even at work, I find myself trying to get things in order.

I thought it was just me! I finished my sons closet today and was eyeing up the windows next. There has not been one stitch of laundry backed up here in weeks. I did the same thing before each of my pregnancies.
