When you’re in the early stages of pregnancy, all you can think about is sleeping and puking (not necessarily in that order), so cleaning definitely doesn’t make the list. But don’t worry, we’re here to help!

These are Wecasa’s tried-and-true tips for keeping your house relatively clean while pregnant. Hustle up and bookmark this post – you’ll thank us later!

Get a storage bin for all your newborn’s clothes and toys

As any parent knows, preparing to have a baby can be a bit of a shock to the system. Soon enough there will be a tiny human being living in your house!

One way to help keep your house clean and organized is to get a storage bin for all your newborn’s clothes and toys. This way, you can keep everything in one place and easily grab what you need when you need it. Plus, when your baby outgrows their clothes, you can simply donate the items to a local charity or sell them online.

Having a storage bin will help you to stay organized and keep your house clean – two things that are essential for any parent!

Set up a cleaning schedule that works for you

Another way to keep your house clean with a baby on the way is to set up a cleaning schedule that works for you. Maybe you want to clean the house every day, or maybe you would prefer to do it once a week. Whatever works best for you is fine!

Create a kid-free zone

One way to help keep your house clean is to create a designated “kid-free zone.” This could be an area of the house where kids are not allowed to play, or it could be an entire room that is off-limits to them.

Creating a kid-free zone can help to reduce the amount of messes made in your house, and it will make it easier for you to clean up after your children. Plus, it’s a great way to teach them about boundaries!

Ask for help from family and friends – they’ll be more than happy to lend a hand!

One of the best ways to keep your house clean with a baby on the way is to ask for help from family and friends. They will be more than happy to lend a hand!

If you have relatives or friends who live close by, ask them if they can come over and help you clean house once a week. This way, you can relax and take a break while someone else does the housework.

If you don’t have any relatives or friends who live close by, ask them to send you a cleaning kit. This will include all the supplies you need to clean your house, such as a vacuum cleaner, mop, and broom.

Having help from family and friends is a great way to keep your house clean – and it’s a lot less work for you!
