Julie, I'm glad your little one is doing so well! I'm sorry to hear about the fibroid, but at least they found a cause for the cramping. Hopefully the discomfort will not increase.
As for the Doppler, I say definitely go for it! It made such a huge difference for me as well as for so many other girls here. Until I started feeling movement, I used it once a day, every morning, and it did wonders for my confidence. I always knew that I had just heard my baby's heart beat less than 24 hours ago, so I had many, many fewer freak out moments. Even now that I can feel the baby moving, I'm still so glad I have it for days when I can't feel him much. I definitely think you won't regret having it.
Maybe you can just call back every couple of days to see if a sooner appointment opens up. Maybe someone will cancel and you could get in earlier with a doctor you like better. It never hurts to ask!
I would call the doctors office and leave a message for your Doc. I would get your questions asked and then ask to come in again in one week. You have been through so much and really deserve to be treated correctly.
Second!!!! I love hearing about the heart beat and growth!!! I will keep you in my prayers all the time!
Hugs.

Sorry about the fibroid Julie (I don't know much about them at all) but at least baby is doing great and doc thinks you don't need to worry. I know you're getting scared about your upcoming milestone but I'm sure that day will come and go totally uneventful!! You're always in my thoughts and prayers. :)
