If you had preterm labor with #1, did your OB/MW do anything different for pregnancy #2?
My OB hasn't mentioned anything specifically he was going to do differently with this pregnancy. LO was born at 34 weeks.

Yes. DS was born at 32 weeks. Starting from week 20 on with M, I had weekly progesterone shots.

I had preterm labor with Chloe. I delivered her at 39 weeks, though.
I don't have more frequent appointments, but they do take everything very seriously and don't brush off any concerns I have. I have to call for any amount of spotting, regardless of color, and be seen (it was my first sign of labor with Chloe, and I dilated to 1cm at 23 weeks). I've bled a lot this pregnancy, have had two ER trips and have been on pelvic rest (with modified bedrest in there, too). Each non-routine appointment earns me a pelvic exam and cervical check.
They also remind me at every appointment to remain hydrated. Dehydration made contractions start the summer I was pregnant.
