I'll be the first to admit that I began "nesting" before I was in my 3rd trimester. I had no idea how much energy I would or wouldn't have when the 8th and 9th month rolled around, so I naturally had to get the big chores on my list accomplished while I still could. That's not to say I didn't ask for help from my husband, who lovingly crawled behind our apartment's washer and dryer to pull it out so that I could clean behind it (because we all know babies care if it is clean behind the washer and dryer).
Amazing that he could fit, right? It really wasn't too difficult to get my 920 sq ft apartment "deep cleaned," but it always feels good, no matter the size of the house. Having no toddlers to run after or a job to go to each day has allowed me to entertain my love of cleaning and organizing and get all of my projects completed before baby. The only problem with me not being a procrastinator is that I completed my list 3 weeks before my due date in case we had an early arrival, so I've had to get creative in ways to productively spend my days while I wait. My due date is right around the corner and now I can spend my time going on many walks and practicing yoga to *hopefully* inspire baby to come on time. We shall see if she listens.
I had my nesting list written down in a notebook but I decided I'd make a PDF version of it for reference later and decided it would be fun to share it in the meantime.
