Doppler?

wheelber

I was considering using a doppler until I can "feel" the baby.. We have had weekly ultra sounds up to this point, but now we will only have the NT scan and the 20wk anatomy scan.... I think I will go crazy waiting & wondering if everything is ok.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a doppler to purchasse or even better, do you happen to have one that I can borrow for about 6 weeks?

TIA

I had the HiBebe doppler for both DS2 and DD and you really can not find the HB until about 11 weeks but once you find it it finds it loud and clear.  Of course it could just be me, I have heard of women finding it as early as 10 weeks but even at an OB office they don't guarantee anything at that point unless they use a u/s.

I purchased one from Amazon for about $100 that was great!  It was this one:

I enjoyed having it in the early days before I could feel movement as well as towards the end when Henry got 'lazy' and would like be still for hours at a time! Also, it was just fun for Ben and for the kids to get it out now and again and listen since they didn't get to feel him move the way I did

I wish I still had it to give to you!  But, I sold it to another Nestie after Henry was born.

Congratulations again!!!!!

I think I already told you, but I have the Sonoline B. It was about $60 on amazon and I used it with Addyston starting around 12 weeks and my sister just used it for her pregnancy starting around 10 weeks. It's been great for the money.

I bought the Sonoline B Fetal heart doppler new from Ebay for around $100.  Looks like the price has dropped some!  I first heard DS's heart beat at 8 weeks.  I also used mine a lot toward the end to ease my mind.  I just let a friend borrow it through her pregnancy and she loved it as well.  I definitely recommend buying one for peace of mind.

I also have the HiBeBe doppler that MissB and Hannah recommended. It was a hand-me-down from my sister but it worked great! I would definitely recommend this brand, unfortunately I lent it out to one of my pregnant friends otherwise I would let you borrow it :-(

l.m.k.

I got the Angel Sounds one from Amazon. It works, but be careful - I couldn't consistently find the HB until I was about 12 or 13 weeks. I'd freak myself out if I couldn't find it, but I could usually find it about every other time I tried. And you definitely need the ultrasound jelly.

I bought the Sonoline B doppler from

I couldn't find it on amazon when I went to get it. 

& loved it! Always found the heart beat right away loud & clear & very easy to use - I lent it out to my cousin/best friend to use however, she is 25 weeks pregnant now & feeling the baby move. Let me see if she is finished with it for me to loan out again. However, if you are considering more babies in the future you might want to go ahead & get one.
