Somebody stop me.

I'm 39+ 2 and couldn't sleep last night because the skirting boards were on my mind, it was only common sense that kept me in bed, I've since spent from 9.30am until 8pm cleaning, everything is spotless even the kickboards in the kitchen, dd1 was also bathed at lunchtime despite having a bath before bed last night and wasn't the slightest bit dirty and I've been up and down ladders touching in bits of paint and hanging curtains.

I'm also suddenly full of energy, I've already got tomorrows cleaning planned, the fridge is going to be emptied and scrubbed, the dogs bathed and I'm going to steam clean every nook and cranny (of the house not the dogs).

Did anyone else get this before going into labour? My desperation to give birth has now been sidelined by my desire to finish cleaning and I want her to hang on in there until everything is done.
I was 1cm dilated last Thursday and had a sweep which didn't do anything but have lost my plug.

I once kicked out all our visitors so that I could scrub the kitchen and lounge floors (laminate) ... my waters went an hour later Grin

I'm frustrated at moment as got a string urge to organise and nest but I have repairs going on and workmen in so have rooms inside of rooms that I'm desperate to sort out ... They finish tomorrow though so it be full steam ahead tomorrow afternoon

I'm 39+4 and have suddenly found energy to clean today without really tiring, I've been lethargic for weeks, I'm hoping it's a sign of labour too, good luck

I love how you kicked out visitors so you could clean, it's such an over powering need to clean.

I'm still here and pregnant although I was awake for a couple of hours in the night with a few niggles and feeling very sick, all along I've had a feeling she'll arrive on the 26th which is tomorrow so maybe all this cleaning is leading up to it, that'd only be 3 days early and dd1 was 2 days early so not totally unlikely.

Fingers crossed we'll have our babies soon and we can let someone else clean Smile
