Maternity clothes: Maternity leggings and lots of over-sized t-shirts.
Stretch marks: Still managing to keep them at bay.
Sleep: I wake up about 1-2 times a night for a restroom break, but other than that I sleep like a rock. Some belly pain/contractions have been waking me up a little more frequently this week, though.
Best moment last week: This week was Valentine's Day! Josh was INCREDIBLE, he started the day by making Callie and I breakfast before he went to work. That night he came home and got busy in the kitchen, not letting me see what he was up to. He made me a steak dinner with my favorites and even tried his hands at dipping strawberries! We exchanged cards and gifts, I got a brand new game (the nerd in me says, eeek!!) and some insanely good chocolates (Fran's Chocolates) and he got a brand new Elvis Andrus bobble head for his desk at work. We had a great day spoiling Callie, too!
Movement: Hiccups, kicks, rolls... you name it this kid does it. He's a strong little guy!
Food cravings: Still no cravings.
Gender: BOY!!!
Labor signs: Lots and lots and LOTS of contractions/pain. Just thrilled to have made it this far! We've already proved 1 fFN test wrong and tomorrow we will have proved another wrong. God is so good!
Belly button - in or out? The top part is officially out now :)
What I miss: Being able to roll over in bed without causing excruciating pain and exhaustion.
What I am looking forward to: Baby shower is this weekend!
Milestones: Sweet boy is putting on more weight everyday and those lungs are getting more and more developed.

Nicki, I just came across your blog on pinterest. I too have issues with my cervix and had a corrective surgery in order to slim my chances of premterm labor. Because of the surgery that I had at 13w2d pregnant, I was able to hold my daughter until 37 weeks. I haven't kept up with my blog, but she is now 6 months old and doing absolutely amazing. If you want to read a little but about my story and the procedure, you can do so at this link. Praying for you and you are doing great. :) http://keeganjourneytoparenthood.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-big-day-my-transabdominal-cerclage.html
