I just bought a fetal doppler and I am confused about how to hear the heart beat. The doppler is definatly picking up something but i dont think its the heart beat. I am 11w1d today how many weeks where you when you could hear it in the doc office or at home on a doppler?
Re: how many weeks were you when you heard the heartbeat from home?
we had one with DD and heard the HB at home at 9 weeks. Heard it at the doctor's office at 10.5 weeks.
no doppler for this baby...so hopefully we'll hear it at our next appt. at 11 weeks
I got our doppler at exactly 11 weeks and heard it that night-the first time it took a while to actually find it. I place the wand in the middle of my pelvis at my hair line-directly under my belly button. Make sure to move the want slowly so that you don't miss it! Good Luck!
