Nesting... take 2!

It's back!!!!!!!  LOL!!

What am I doing at 2AM?  (Besides blogging...)  Taking apart my stove and scrubbing the heck out of every nook and cranny.  I also took on the huge task of reorganizing the shelves in our bathroom and dusted the heck out of our bedroom.

My husband keeps telling me that I'm moving too fast, but I just want to get things done.  I'm hopping from one room to another, crouching down to clean under the bed, squatting to clean the bottom of the stove, etc.  It feels good to move around.

I feel WAY more relaxed now.  I completely understand that Bunny is going to come out when she's ready, but I just have to do something with myself in the meantime.

Here's a list of the things I've done to try to get her out:
1. Walk ALOT!!
2. Drank red raspberry leaf tea (I'm actually drinking a cup now.  I've always loved the tea and drank it regularly prepregnancy to help with PMS and cramps.)
3. Ate Eggplant Parmesan.  It was DELICIOUS!  I'd never had it before, but now that I have I'll be ordering it again.
4. Squats and lunges across my living room in hopes that it'll open my pelvis and Bunny will drop down.
5. Had some "quiet time" with the hubs.  (Sorry if TMI!!)  My midwife says it works, hasn't worked yet, but we'll see....
6. Ate fresh pineapple.  Supposedly it has some sort of enzymes that help induce labor.  I've ate it two days in a row and it hasn't done anything yet.

It would be SO funny if I went into labor today.  My sister and her husband get back from their cruise and Hubby and I are supposed to pick them up from the airport.  LOL!!

Happy Friday!!

Nesting...

Nesting mode has seriously taken over.  I woke up at 4AM with the strong urge to clean, clean, clean.  Everything irritates me.  Dust on the entertainment center.  A dirty rag in the kitchen sink.  A speck of lint on the carpet.  I feel like burning the house down and starting over!

And my husband thinks I'm crazy.  I expected the nesting instinct to kick in.  Actually, I thought I had already went through the phase when I was scrambling around to get all Bunny's necessities together.  But this is different.  This time I'm much more emotional.  I had to take a break because I felt like crying after I assigned myself the task to reorganize our entire walk in closet.

Some people say that this is one of the first signs of labor.  I really hope so!  My Braxton Hicks contractions are getting stronger and feeling more like bad menstrual cramps.  They even started to wake me up in the middle of the night.

But who knows?  Bunny may stay in my belly until next year.

I wrote this blog post to give myself a break from cleaning, but I feel like this "mess" is just staring at me, so I'm off to sort some clothes and do some laundry.

Happy Friday everyone!!
