HAH, I wish MINE would...with all of my pregnancies...If *I* didnt' do it or TELL him to do it, it didnt' get done LOL  

It may seem annoying now...but consider yourself VERY fortunate...the more he does the less YOU have to do therefore saving up YOUR energy for the big day.  With any luck he'll keep it up for atleast a few weeks after baby gets here too.  You're a lucky girl :)

I'm 37 weeks.  This past weekend, I went through all of baby's clothes, washed them again and put them in drawers and now I am going through mine and DH's clothes and giving ones we don't wear to Good Will.
I have been getting the erge to go through all my cupboards and closets....hopefully baby is on her way soon!  
Good luck to everyone!

I hope it doesn't mean the baby is coming soon as i am only 18.3 weeks and i seem to be going through a major cleaning phase.  I seem to want to go through all my drawers and cupboards and get rid of all unwanted junk / clutter and tidy everything up.  I am natuarally a clean freak but this is above my normal want to tidy.  I am hoping it is a mid way nesting thing lol.

Nesting is just another one of pregnancies wonderful joys. It doesn't mean labor is soon approaching, it is a bad symptom in my opinion to go off of for when labor is pending. I am 25 weeks and have been nesting since about 22 weeks. My hubby has also had major sympathy symptoms, DH has gained weight from eating and snacking with me, he gets heartburn when he usually never has it, he even has constipation, and has been helping me nest aswell, except we split the duties, I get the indoors hubby gets the outdoors.

Not sure, but I guess it could be possible. They do tend to get sympathy nausea and other symptoms, so why not. I guess I would start worrying when you start helping him clean.
