Oh my word -- I can see why you'd feel overwhelmed! Congrats on the pregnancy.

Does the baby affect the house move?

I'd say, start small. Put SkyArts on the tv and watch it while you do the school forms.

Then have a break.

Then do 15 minutes' decluttering.

Have another break.

Then do 15 minutes in another room.

Break.

Etc.

Thanks Molly!

Yes we were thinking about moving smaller to a 3 bed but now looking for another 4 bed if we can afford it.

Do you have to move now? I think I'd be tempted to wait until after the baby. But then I'm really lazy, lol

Litttlepinkegg · 09/04/2019 12:49

Lol that does sound appealing! Need to move as dd transferring to school in other village, so need to be in village for Feb deadline as need to apply for ds’ school place.
Also if we go now 2 dependants and I’m working whereas later 3 and me on mat leave mortgage will be less.

Good point about the mortgage...

Well, no choice then! Baby steps. If you've got a ton of stuff, you could just hire a skip and clear it out or hire a storage unit?

Time for a huge clear out. Don't be precious, be brutal.

And set regular breaks!
