I figured out what I really need for the baby  

post #1 of 12
Thread Starter 
I don't need onesies, diapers, breast pads, or any of that stuff.

I need someone to clean my bathroom and I need someone to clean my kitchen. I mean so clean I could invite a health inspector over to eat off the floor. So clean you wouldn't feel bad running your tooth brush over the grout before you brushed your teeth.

That is my dream baby gift.

PS If they really loved me they would throw in a lasagne.

Hmmm, if you haven't had a baby shower yet ... could you register for a Merry Maid gift certificate?

My maid had to leave and go back to Nicaragua because her mother is ill Is it wrong for me to hope she comes back before the baby comes??

That's what I'd like too. It's a form of nesting I guess, but I'm too lazy/huge/tired to do it myself.

I want a personal chef to cook for me after the birth using all the fresh CSA veggies & farmshare meat we get.

And then I woke up!

My mother's coming up Thursday to help me clean. She's one of those people that can't help herself from cleaning. If I leave her in a room alone for five minutes, I come back to find little changes... magazines sorted, dining room table cleaned off, dishwasher unloaded, etc. I used to hate it, now I think it's the best thing ever!

So, while I'm having a hard time getting motivated, I know that she'll help out a lot... and if I see her cleaning, I feel guilty and HAVE to help. : So my house will be clean!!! It's so exciting.

Best of all, she does it for free.

I actually did this last month (and hurt my back in the process.) I woke up early one sat morning and cleaned the kitchen floor/ grout with a toothbrush. Unfortunately I only got about 75% done before my back started screaming so now it's just partially really clean and partially, well, not so clean. I try to ignore that part.

I cleaned bathrooms yesterday. I even cleaned the medicine cabinet. It took me all day, mind you, between breaks and naps etc etc. But, it's done. I totally know how you feel!

OMG Aimee! You read my mind!! I seriously need a clean house for the baby, NEED it! I don't see it happening, but I swear I am going to make myslef keep up on dishes/laundry and do one extra thing a day, either mop a floor, or declutter a shelf, something. Ugh. I need a cleaning person.

I wish I had your mom!! My mom doesn't clean her own house, let alone help me clean mine. LOL
