I wouldn't dare buy any baby stuff until I was safely past 12 weeks, but I have a bit of PTSD :silly: the most I'm doing is looking but not touching w/maternity clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434923 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 07:12:27 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2434923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Working on her big girl room was a great first trimester activity! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434915 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 06:57:14 +0000 brownepiano 2434915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. But it was mostly to do with changes for lo 1. I wanted him to have lots of time to get used to a new bed, no pacifier, and potty training before #2 comes. Oh and some house stuff since we just moved </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434913 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 06:37:57 +0000 Applesandbananas 2434913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LCTBQE: I've been avoiding baby specific tasks for that reason too. I haven't had my first ultrasound so I haven't purchased anything for baby or done anything for the nursery. Im also pretty undecided on what I actually want to do with the nursery for LO2. A big part of me wants to leave it pretty much as is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434898 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 04:55:16 +0000 Cherrybee 2434898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, absolutely. I'm 27 weeks tomorrow and I've finished the nursery, washed and ironed the baby's clothes, half packed my hospital bag and decluttered half the house. I'm glad, though, because I'm starting to feel heavy &amp; tired now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434896 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 04:47:32 +0000 LCTBQE 2434896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd love to nest, but I'm too scared to begin--I want to confirm viability first. I have been going through and organizing my kitchen, but only because I need a distraction :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434895 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 04:42:57 +0000 hellobeeboston 2434895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of. I made a massive house to-do list that had at least 8-10 itemsin each room of the house (and outside) I wanted to get done before baby 2. It was just around 12 weeks. I hung it on the fridge and it took almost my entire pregnancy to get everything done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434889 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 03:52:04 +0000 wrkbrk 2434889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We ripped up our carpet and got new flooring. Does that count? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434867 Sun, 24 Jan 2016 00:05:15 +0000 HLK208 2434867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I'm 10 weeks and so far I've put my big girls' room together, bought a bigger couch, and I've been making homemade meals more than ever 😁 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434807 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 22:24:56 +0000 pastemoo 2434807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Applesandbananas: what you said, exactly, all the clutter really got to me, gave away and threw away a lot of stuff </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434804 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 22:18:36 +0000 pregnantbee 2434804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband. Lol. Which in turn is also making me want to declutter :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434753 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 21:15:28 +0000 Foodnerd81 2434753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And I went through and washed the infant clothes since we had another girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434751 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 21:14:18 +0000 Foodnerd81 2434751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Applesandbananas: we did almost nothing for lo2! I wanted to just do more cleaning out and organizing in general so we would have space for lo2 and her gear. So things like packing up outgrown clothes and toys and making space in drawers. The baby is in the rnp in our room, C is still in her crib in her room. She has a drawer in my dresser and changing pad on top. But it would be way easier if we if made more space first. </p> <p>We will probably move around the time they are ready to share a room anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434716 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 20:51:09 +0000 Applesandbananas 2434716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I'm not sure what we'll do to actually prep for LO2. I think we're going to use a rock n play in our room for awhile and then transition to crib, so I'm not too anxious to get the crib set up. If I catch diapers on sale, I'll grab a couple boxes, but I don't really plan to drastically change the nursery, just move LO's stuff out and leave some baby toys. Maybe I'll feel more motivated once we know gender!</p> <p>What did you do to prep for LO2? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434705 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 20:44:48 +0000 Foodnerd81 2434705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't because I was soooo tired. But if you can that's so smart because it will only get harder by third trimester when I was freaking out about getting ready I was too big and uncomfortable to do anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434703 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 20:43:15 +0000 gracecat 2434703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes totally! It's good to be prepared. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-nest-in-the-first-tri#post-2434687 Sat, 23 Jan 2016 20:26:32 +0000 Applesandbananas 2434687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use quotes because I don't think it's legitimate nesting, but I've been so frustrated by the clutter lately and have really been focused on getting LO into his big boy room (which was the plan long before we found out about LO2), and just generally more focused on cleaning. </p> <p>Anyone else go through this? I feel nuts lol </p>
