Why am I going to the OB every 2 weeks?

This is my second baby. No problems with the first, she was born 40w6d perfectly healthy. She's 2. I'm 19 now. And I just realized, I'll be 28 weeks this weekend. But I've been going to the doctor every 2 weeks for the past 2 appointments, so since I was almost 24 weeks. I went in today and scheduled my next for 2 weeks.
I'm not high risk, no problems or anything. And I just realized this maybe an hour ago and am now freaking out.
If their was a problem they would tell me, correct?!

Seeing the doctor every 2 weeks from  28 to 36 weeks is typical. Here is more on making the most of your OB appointments from MedHelp.org.

Surely they'd tell you if there was a problem. Why don't you ask?
Hell I'd love if my appointments were every two weeks already.
