Should I hire a cleaning service?

[cindylou]

I cant keep up anymore. Should I hire a cleaning service or is it a waste of money?

I need my house to be clean to be able to relax in it but Im physically unable to continue to clean like I need to so I cant relax

its a catch 22

I have to nap for two hours after work just so I can make a walmart run

awwww lol. you poor thing. you're at the end of your pregnancy huh.

if you can afford it, then do it.

YES! This is fucking brilliant! Do that, and make sure they'll be coming after the baby shows up.

Added bonus, less excuse for in-laws to come to house.

You'll need to call around to find one that does "wet" work (mopping) as well as general tidying, vaccuming, etc.

What would be ideal would be to ask someone you know who has their house cleaned. A lot of people do the work privately (under the table) and are the most reliable (actually going above and beyond the line of duty, and are very trustworthy) but they don't advertise, they get new clients by word of mouth.

Im sold now. For sure. I need to find someone to ask, thanks for the advice. I do need someone to do the wet work because thats the stuff I'm having a hard time doing right now.

I'm telling you, if it's in the budget, have someone come in until the baby is at least 3 months old, seriously.

I would have frigging KILLED to have someone help me when my kid was born. I couldn't even handle my laundry. I was just exhausted and totally frazzled. I called my mother crying.

Just crack the whip on that husband of yours.

 

[needtogetarmy]

I vote yes! You deserve it

Im anticipating this, I'm picturing myself in the nursery with a screaming baby in a dirty house, with one boob out and I'm on the floor sobbing. lol!

I have a feeling that since you're probably nesting right now that no cleaning service will suit your standards. You're probably better off having some friends and family to come over and help you do a good spring clean and then keep up with it after the baby comes.
