Nesting?!?!?!

So, I understand that all preggo women go through a period of 'nesting' where they get everything ready for the baby. My question is this: Is nesting contagious? As many of you know, my sister is knocked up with Sampson (no, that is not the real name so don't get all excited) and was nesting some when I was there. Why have I been doing so since I returned home? I have vacuumed my entire house twice a week, bleached everything that could be bleached without being ruined, fertilized my lawn, watered every day, put up a bird feeder, put up a new wind chime, washed every piece of laundry I could, organized and re-organized my closet, organized my garage and cleaned out my car. So, am I nesting because I caught it from my sister? All you mom's out there...what do you think?

I need you to come nest at our house....I'm not sure if it's contagious, but it sounds like it could be.

Hmmm...I would say that it possibly could be contagious. You'd have to ask Rachel though if the same thing happened to her with me. I can see how it could be though definitely.

Man, nesting is no joke! I always heard about it, but when it happened to me, I realized how true it was!! Contagious..hmm..why dont you come to my house and see! ;)
I agree w/ Krystyn, if you are going to nest, let it be at her house!!
You are such a fun aunt and I bet you are too excited to meet "Sampson"

I think it is the cooler air that is coming that makes us 'nest', 'spring/fall clean'. I want to nest, but can't get the time!! Please come help me! :)

When you've done all the nesting you possibly can at your place, come nest at mine as well.... it could use a WHOLE lot of nesting right about now!! You're too cute. Congrats on soon becoming an aunt for the second time. And where's good ole Steph Mac been? We need to push the nesting aside and hit a happy hour sometime. I miss you girls!!
