Sooo when you get a doppler do you use it the whole pregnancy?

I am still on the fence.  We saw the baby last week and she/he was very healthy moving around.  My concerns at this point are minimal.  However, until I can feel the baby moving, I still have a slight very small voice that tells me I'm not 100% out of the woods.  I'm trying to tell myself just to be patient and listen to the HB every 4 weeks at my OB appointments, but part of me wants a doppler so I can hear it between appointments.  Ugh, decisions decisions!  DH is very against them, so I guess I have my answer - but I think if I wanted it bad enough, I could talk him into it.

I used my doppler until about 20 weeks...when I could start feeling her move daily. I haven't used it since then, but it's nice to know that if I need that reassurance, I have it.

I had been using mine about every other day. I still use it but it is maybe once a week now. I can feel some movement but it is still not consistant so I like to check up on the baby every now and then. I think I will continue to use it now because I have seen posts from 3rd triers who had a no movement for longer than they were used to or had some spotting or something like that and they were able to use their dopplers still. I think having it handy is very comforting for me!

I used mine today!  I'm paranoid I guess.  If I haven't felt him move in a while, then I use it.  Peace of mind.  Totally worth it in my opinion!

I rented mine. I got it around 12 weeks and used it pretty much daily until about 20 weeks. I can not say enough about how it got me through those anxious days. It's obviously a personal choice, but I wouldn't have changed it for anything.
