How do I get energy and the motivation to get everything done before she comes??

I have 31 days left until my due date for my first child, a baby girl! I have no energy, tired, un-motivated... Any advice on how to get the burst of energy people talk about in order to get the many things done before her arrival? I moved recently and still have that to finish and I feel like I should be doing so much more but for some reason (which is not like me at all) I am procrastinating, resting and I don't feel like I am doing everything I should or could. Any advice? Suggestions?

I'm due in 27 days and this past week I got a burst of energy but also had down time. I went room by room taking lots of breaks and as I saw things coming together slowly it gave me more motivating to do more with less breaks. Still have some baby gear to put together but for the most part I am 75% complete.

I think everyone stalemates for a period of time.  I found that i was only able to focus on 1 room a week.  Yes that slow... unfortunately i never felt long term burst of energy but one day i would be up than down for a few.  I am due in 2 days and i finally got all furniture and painting situated.  Good luck take your time.
