Nesting during lockdown

Hi everyone, more just wondering if anyone is feeling the same as me with the whole lockdown situation.

I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant and found that the past few weeks I've been coping fairly well with lockdown, especially knowing I'm keeping my beanie baby safe. But I've noticed that the past couple of weeks, my nesting instincts have intensified... when we first moved into the house, we didn't do a lot of decorating because we wanted to settle and decide later. It wasn't in a particular rush to be done as the man who we bought the house from was a handyman and got the house ready to be sold anyway. But these past few weeks, again it is still not absolutely desperate to have work done in the house but I'm desperate to have the master bedroom organised... like getting agitated by the wardrobes, reorganising my dressing table over and over even though it's fine. The baby room is already done.... I went nuts cleaning the bathroom other day. I'm not sure if it's normal to get so agitated over cleaning and organising but it's literally all I think about going to bed and it's stopping me from sleeping. Is this normal or is it because of lockdown why I feel like it's so intensified?

Yes I m 26 weeks pregnant and doing lots of nesting. I think cause I m spending more time at home than usual you can see more that needs done? Also it's taking a while to get some things delivered or things are out of stock it feels better to be prepared early?

@ChristmasComing123 Definitely! It feels like I'm going mad with it hahah! Trying to get organised is just a nightmare too with all this going on. Hopefully it's blown over by our due dates although I can picture myself having a mad rush 😂

I'm 20+5 and been isolating at home for nearly 9 weeks 😭
We have finally decided on what we want for the nursery so all furniture has been ordered and I'm constantly on the search for things to 'get the house ready'
However, paint is the next issue! I can't get samples delivered so now I don't know what to do as DH doesn't want me to going to B&Q!
However, I want to do it now as I've seriously gone into nesting! Lockdown has definitely elevated these urges!
What am I going to do without my paint! The room is currently a shitty purple and that will just not do! 😫😫😫
I feel your pain OP!
