UPDATE: To doppler or not to doppler; that is the question

in Pregnant after a Loss
I just gave in and ordered the Sonoline B 3mhz.  I'm really starting to freak out again, so I think that this is the best thing for me.  Thanks everyone for your thoughts on dopplers last week.  I'm hoping this will help me cope better :-)

    Good luck!  I loved having the doppler in the stage before I could feel LO moving around.  The Sonoline B worked great.  :)

    I promised myself that I wouldn't use it every day when we got one. DH and I checked in once a week to hear the heartbeat. I hope this helps you through this stage in your pregnancy.

    I'm in that in-between stage of losing my symptoms and feeling movement, so my doppler has been keeping me sane! I have to admit though, I can get obsessed with it sometimes, but my anxiety is so much lower. Whenever I am worrying about something, I whip out the doppler and calm my fears.

    I hope it eases the stress for you!

    I wish I could use mine! I got it over a month ago but I told myself I wouldn't use it until my doctor could find the HBs using hers. She still couldn't at 13w5d because my uterus is tilted back Sad

    That's interesting that they are trying to use a doppler with twins.  During my first pregnancy my OB said that they wouldn't use a doppler because it was too hard to know which hb was whose.  They said they only use u/s for multiples.

    My Dr. uses doppler for multiples, too.

    I will be right behind you shortly on the doppler train . . . I've been debating on ordering one as well but I think I'm going to.  I would order it now but I'm kinda early yet to hear anything and I know if I did get it right now I would start using it because I have self control and then not hear anything possibly and then freak myself out!  Plus I have an u/s next Thursday so I've decided on waiting until after that u/s to order it!  By the time it gets here I will be 11 weeks +/- but I'm excited to try it!
