Doppler at Home?

Has anyone asked their doctor about home doppler use?

If so, please share their opinions! Waiting to hear back from mine.

After four losses, I found baby’s heartbeat at home on the Sonoline B after seeing my doctor find it at 10W4D.

It’s reassuring to use at home (I KNOW it doesn’t mean all is okay) but I want to make sure it’s safe for baby.

TIA.

My doctor said no, as they cause way more concern than help.  They get so many calls of people freaking out because they cannot find a heartbeat. 95.5% of the time it's fine.  He had had cases where mom "heard the heartbeat" though she lost the baby weeks ago.
