Nesting: The Good, the Bad, and the Insanel

Nesting is your body's way of convincing you that cleaning behind the fridge at 3 AM is a completely rational activity. You've Googled things you never imagined: Can you Swiffer your ceiling? Is alphabetizing books by color acceptable? Should the nursery have a feng shui consultant?

Your newfound love for cleaning should come with a disclaimer: Compulsive vacuuming is a pregnancy glow in disguise! But hey, it’s not all a bad gig. Nesting gives you a chance to create the chic, Insta-worthy nursery of your dreams. Think soft pastels, inspiring quotes adorning the walls, and yes, a bassinet that costs as much as your last vacation. #noregrets
