I’m an interior designer and I “nest” every day! 😬

Answer

Depends. I’ve been “nesting” my entire pregnancy. I’ve had my nursery 100% ready since 25 weeks and my hospital bag was packed by 30 weeks. Now at 37 weeks, I’ve felt an impulsive need to clean everyyyytthing. Hands and knees, scrubbing every inch of my house, every closet has been completely cleaned, I’m taking trip and trip to goodwill with donations from emptying things out.. 
Like I said, I’ve been nesting and well prepared but this feels much different.
