First OB appointment

I had my first OB appointment today. I didn't see my regular OB, but another from the practice who I had never met before. He did a pap, since my last one was in May, 2009 and then we listened to both heartbeats on the doppler! IDK why, but that just seems like such a big milestone for me. No u/s, which was disappointing, but hearing the h/bs is good enough for me at this point. Also, my OB didn't mention doing an NT scan. I know most people get it done b/w 10 and 12 weeks. He just told me to come back in 2 weeks, so I go back 9/4. I'm not really that worried about the scan (b/c I'm keeping both babies no matter what the tests say), but I still might call tomorrow. OB also suggested that a low-lying placenta is the cause of my spotting. I'll take it - at least it is some sort of explanation.

You may have also noticed that the due date on my ticker keeps changing. I was going by the EDD on the u/s, but I have decided to stick with the date going from my ER. That puts me into my 12th week, and that makes me feel better; closer to being out of the 1st tri.
