38 weeks and tonight I have cooked stuff for dd lunch to keep in the freezer, a batch of chilli and chocolate brownies.

I NEVER COOK- I HATE IT! What is wrong with me? I feel the urge to cook more but I don't know what to do!

Me too! I'm 33 weeks and can't get enough of baking. Cup cakes, chocolate brownies, lemon drizzle. It's very bad for me and DH, but I love it! Perhaps it's my long-dormant domestic inclinations rising to the surface now babba is so close!

I did this a few weeks ago! Mass cooking and baking days, freezer now full.

It's ok it wears off quite fast but I'm still pregnant Hmm

baking was my form of nesting with dd3 . . . :)

Argh I was hoping it was a "labour is imminent" sign! Clearly not.... I'm just a little but fatter as a result of the choc brownies!! I have been batch cooking as well, if I can't put anything in the freezer as a result, then i can't be asked to cook it all!

So far I've done curry, chicken pie filling, chilli, spag Bol, and what I cooked last night. Shock

Louise- cakes, what an excellent idea....
I'm off to search the cupboards to see if we have everything to make up some healthy muffins which I can freeze! (After I have brushed our side passage which is really really really bugging me). Blush

oh yes you are sooooo nesting Grin

PeppaPigStinks · 25/06/2013 20:56

Haha I am not sure i feel comfortable with 'nesting'. I've just considered ironing my DH shirts. I've not had this urge in the 8 years we have been together!!
