Nesting
Is that where mom cleans the house three times and is now
working on the fourth?
Yep,
that is nesting. It is something most women have to do; she is
getting her nest ready. For some mom to be, it may not make
much difference. On the other hand, for the others it can cause
havoc. A dad told a group of us, on one occasion, he and his
wife had been shopping. In route home, she looked around the
car, took a deep breath through her nose and exclaimed to her
husband, Im not bringing my baby home in the old car. I got
me a new F-150 out of that deal. I like this nesting
thing, he said.
The
examples maybe a little extreme, however, the point is give her
all the support she needs. She may ask you to move the sofa
three times, be ready to move it again. Burn the midnight oil
if need be. The baby will be here soon and normalcy will take on
a completely new implication, (whatever normal was, it will not
be the same anymore.) New mom, new dad, new baby means a new
family. You are going to do great! |
