    Hey Rosey Nearly that time already... the last 6 months have just flown by!!
    With DS I honestly didn't do much physically. I did work casually up until the week before I had him so i was on my feet a little bit. But if you take the 'traditional' view of women who do housework (scrub floors & sweep), wash clothes, hang washing etc. Anything but sitting in a recline positioned on the couch it gets bub in a good position to birth. So if you are busy in nesting mode and need to get things 'clean' for bub then that is good. It's not going to hurry bub along any more than normal but it just makes sure that the chances are higher of it being the right way/position. And it keeps your mind busy too

    Thanks Ladies. I haven't been walking as in exercising but I do keep myself active. I might do some light walking of a night when its cool. Thank you for the tip.

    Kirley - yes the time has flown by. I am so happy to hear your news and hope things are going well for you! I have been nesting and I am sure when I start maternity leave it will only increase lol.

    I have acknowledged that I will probably go over my due date - that is what everyone has told me from day dot and I know she will arrive when ready but just want to give myself the best possible chance IYKWIM.
