38 Weeks Pregnancy Update

How far along: 38 weeks!

How big is baby: The size of a spaghetti squash

Total weight gain: 40 lbs

Maternity clothes: The comfier and bigger the better! Clothes are a struggle lately. I love this non-maternity sweater and this poncho! Both are super comfy and cozy at this time of pregnancy.

Stretch marks: None, I love using this cream every day to continue to prevent them!

Sleep: I never know what kind of sleep I am going to get, but I will say I have fallen asleep on my back a few times recently and it wasnt hard to breathe for the first time in a looooong time! Baby must be positioned in a way that doesn’t completely crush my lungs anymore.

Best moment of this week: Completely redoing and organizing the nursery closet. It’s all put together for the little boy!

Miss anything: Not having to psych myself up to get up from sitting or out of bed — the pain is so real.

Movement: He still moves every day — the movements are like pushes and stretches more so than kicks.

Food cravings: Nothing lately! My appetite is starting to dimminish — I think I am completely out of room for food!!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing anymore! It’s SUCH a relief!

Belly button in or out: It’s out! When I laugh it pops out more! My husband (the reason for my constant laughter) thinks this is hilarious.

Wedding rings on or off: The rings are officially off! In fact, they have been off for a few weeks. As a Christmas gift, my husband got me a new and bigger ring to wear for the last few weeks — you can check it out here! It’s so delicate and beautiful, and this ring should fit my middle or index finger once pregnancy is over.

Happy or moody most of the time: Happy but the daily Braxton Hicks and other pains and pressure can make me moody in the moment!

Looking forward to: Baby boy to make his arrival! Come on… we are ready!!

Books, Books to Film, Turner Classic Movies, and Outlander are topics (aside from my kids, husband, & two cats) that elicit instant joy for me. Here at 'Home With Two' you'll find those topics in plenty -- amongst so much more! Thank you for being here!

Hi I’m Julie

I love to read, write, and take too many pictures. Blogging has always combined all three loves into a fun and beautiful hobby. You can always find me with an iced coffee in one hand and a book (or two) in the other. Thanks for stopping by!

Daisy Jones & The Six — one of my favorite book adaptations ever. 📚 More books need to be made into a limited TV series rather than crammed into a movie.  #daisyjonesandthesix #bookadaptation #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #bookflatlay

This is one of the best historical fiction books I’ve ever read (listened to, thank you @netgalley). If you have the chance to get your hands on this one, READ IT! 

It doesn’t just tell you what happened in history, it truly makes you feel it. It educates you and moves you all at the same time. Thank you @tammyehuf I’ll read anything you write.

My #ThoughtDaughter book stack from July—the month I tried to pick a theme that resonated the most with me. My standouts: Alone With You In The Ether, The Virgin Suicides, and My Year Of Rest and Relaxation which I think about every time I buy an iced coffee and consider buying a second. #bookstagram #bookstack #myyearofrestandrelaxation #alonewithyouintheether
