Oh Baby! Nesting Instincts

Everyone experiences pregnancy differently. During my first pregnancy, I never nested.  I really didn't think anything of this fact until my mother pointed it out a while back.  She said that if I did nest, it was really hard to tell, because I was probably just being my usual self.  What she was getting at is that there's little difference between normal, OCD, Type A personality Gabby and a nesting woman. 

But did I go through a frenzied time of cleaning everything in sight?  No, not at all.  I don't know if I skipped nesting because Isabelle was born 2 weeks early or because there wasn't much to clean.  I'd already spent my pregnancy vacuuming ceiling fans, wiping down light fixtures, and reorganizing closets (that was last pregnancy, before I had a toddler!). 

Lately, I've had more of a desire to clean my house, but to me, it seems that I have more energy and I'm back to my old self again.  It doesn't seem extreme and I have yet to get my house to a spotless state.  I don't know if nesting is yet to come or if I'll skip it again.

So I'm curious.  Did you nest?  There's a poll at the left of my blog, and I'd love to see your experiences reflected there or through comments.
