" ..........in humans...... commonly characterized by a strong urge to clean and organize one's home and is one reason why couples who are expecting a baby often reorganize, arrange, and clean the house and surroundings. " .....Nesting Instinct- courtesy wikipedia
Anushka already wants to buy baby clothes and toys and fill it up. I just asked her to place the toys we had sorted for the baby from her old stuff.
She is very particular that small toys are not part of this since I had mentioned to her that babies have a tendency to put everything into their mouths. . .
Oh yes! here are the latest Anushisms, centering around the baby-
She is aware that the baby is smiling, sleeping, eating, swimming and even "troubling" her amma in water in her stomach
" When doc aunty cuts your stomach all the water will come out na?"
Had to reassure her that
1. the baby would not need the water since it would also come out
2. doc aunty will ensure the water is cleaned/ mopped up
Boy or Girl
" Once baby comes out of your stomach, it will say its name and then we will know if it is a boy or a girl!!"
"If you have a boy, then the baby and I will be like Charlie and Lola" ( ceebebies)
" If you have a girl. then she can have all my paavadai chattais which have become small"
Inspired
" Amma I want a baby in my stomach. When will it happen?"
Offered her a simplistic reply- after her marriage!! LOL, though it may not be prerequisite as we know

i think these instincts are more for slobs like me! you should have seen me the day before i went into labour - the whole house was shining despite my huge watermelon shape!
and LOl at anushisms! major deja vu feelings!
These instincts have kicked in for me & since I am usually quite the opposite of "organised", it's doing my world a whole lot of good.
Chalie & Lola.......lol. Ansh too loves that cartoon.
I have read about the nesting instinct but it hasnt struck me yet..i am still 8 weeks away from my due date..
I am thoroughly confused since it is my first time and also since i will be going to hyd to be with my parents for the delivery,i am cool!
All the best to u!:)
awww. anushisms are always fun to read...and so sweet!

Anushisms are just awesome! and i dont think i went into nesting instinct even when pregnant! so you can imagine how terrible i am! my mom did all the clearing and cleaning! :p
cheers!
abha
i was born with a genetic disability to clean up or organise in anyway. ;-)
LOLOL Anushisms and her wanting a baby in her stomach. :-D
Sonny boy's been seeing a whole lot of preggie ladies recetnly, and is mighty curious about the whole thing. Almost makes me wish for a baby to just see his reactions
Brat also asked me the same question. But it was easier to answer since 'boys can't have babies in their stomach, only girls can'
LoL :)
Anushisms are priceless.
So, you finished with all the cleaning yet?
Loved your header.
The drawing is precious. Anush is very fair. The hands and legs are sticking out of the head for both herself and the baby .LOL!
The header pic of Anush is adorable.
Cantaloupe asks the exact same question and I had the same answer. This was followed by when will I get married ... will you be around to take care of my babies etc etc and I had to pause her to remind that there is LONG time before all this can happen :)
Cute Anushisms! Can't wait to see the pic of both almirahs together.
