Nesting = Labour?

[Twinklefae]

So the last three days have been crazy. I've been nesting. I never really understood what that meant until now. I have done the dishes, washed down my counters, cleaned out my bedroom closet ( at 11:30pm last night!) mopped my kitchen, bought groceries, done 4 loads of laundry, washed and lanolized my soakers, packed hospital bags, made and frozen speghetti sauce.... you name it I've been doing it. I'm freaking my DF out, as I've never really been one to get into the cleaning thing.

So does this mean I'm going into labour soon? And by soon would that be like the next few days? Or do you think it will wait another week and a half, like I want it to!

Nesting is what I'm doing too, lots of cleaning laudry. It's an indication you are getting ready, but we never know exactly when. I have three weeks to go yet and am doing all the nesting stuff.

It didn't mean anything for me. My nesting happened last week and nothing. But I know for some people it means labor is right around the corner!

It didn't mean anything for me. I nested in spurts for a few weeks before I actually went into labor. The night before labor, I didn't have nesting & didn't feel like I was going into labor at all.
