Doppler question...

I'm debating about getting a dopper b/c I'm anxious to hear the heartbeat like everyday. Have any of you girls bought a doppler and really liked it??

    I have one and listen to LO almost every night!  It's reassuring, especially on days where he doesn't move a lot (like today)...

    I bought mine along with my pregnant friend.  We split the cost so we split the time with it.  I use mine every day when I have it, she only uses hers a few times a week.  I guess it depends on who you are!  I definitely think it was worth it :)

    I had a previous loss, so I knew this pregnancy I was going to be very on edge.  I bought a Sonoline B Doppler, and it arrived when I was 11w 4d and DH and I found the hb within 3 minutes.  It was an absolute lifesaver for me...very comforting to know that I could check in on baby when I want to.

    Now that he is kicking so much I haven't used it in a couple weeks...but I know as he gets bigger he will have less room and have slow movement days, so I know I will love having it then too!

    BFP #2 7/20/11 ** EDD: 3/28/12: IT'S A BOY!
    BFP #1 12/30/10 ** EDD: 9/6/11** H/B stopped at 10w 6d conf on 2/22/11 ** D&C 2/24/11.
    Congrats to my Labor Buddy LoriJ11, baby Elise born 2/24/12

    I borrowed one from a friend, and I barely use it, maybe 5 times in a month? I know alot of women get obsessed with them but that wasnt the case for me.

    my mom got one for me at a garage sale for 5 dollars. apparently it was an old guy selling it who had absolutely no idea what it was or how much it was worth lol. i used it a lot in the beginning, before i could feel the baby kick. now i don't use it so much, because i feel that she's okay. but if something doesn't feel right or if i get paranoid, it's good to have because then i just check her heartbeat and everything is fine. i think its totally worth it. especially if you are one to get paranoid lol.

    If someone tried to take my doppler they might get shanked. I LOVE mine. I use it every day.

    Yes I could not imagine not having mine. I have a sonoline B and it is wonderful. Worth the money!

    I rented one for my first pregnancy.  I strongly suggest holding off.  You should start feeling the baby move soon.  Movement always made me feel better than the doppler.  Plus I would always freak out when I did not find the hb right away.  If you decide to buy one, I suggest you avoid the cheap ones.  A lot of women complain that you pay for what you get with the cheaper dopplers.  GL.

    I have a sonoline b fetal doppler.. it works great. it was 50 dollars on ebay.I have been able to hear her heartbeat since 11 weeks with no problem. And it has always been her heartbeat not mine lol. sounds like a galloping horse.

    It kept me sane until i could feel her moving. now that i get kicked all the time i dont really use the doppler.. but its there in case i need it.
