Pregnant after a Loss

Talk to me about dopplers

Obviously 6 weeks 6 days is way too early for me to be buying one. So when is a good time and how early did you hear your baby's heartbeat? Also, what brand did you use?

Re: Talk to me about dopplers

  • I bought a Sonoline B.  I was able to hear the heartbeat at 10w2d, which is the day I got the doppler.

  • I think the vast majority of women here who have a doppler bought the sonoline B. If you shop around you should be able to get it for around 50 dollars. I have never had a problem with mine and would definitely endorse it. It was money well spent for sure. 

    I started trying around 9 weeks but didn't find the baby until 10w2d. After that I used it every few days until around 20w.

  • I had decided not to buy one but changed my mind a few days ago and ordered a Sonoline B.   I'm still waiting for it to arrive, but hoping I'll get to use it Monday night!

  • I also bought the Sonoline B and found the baby's heartbeat the day it came in.  I was 10 weeks 0 days at the time. It was a pain at first but eventually you figure out where the baby likes to hang out.

  • I have the sonoline A. The B has more bells and whistles, but I didn't feel like paying an extra $20. 

    I found it in the 11th week. It was 50/50 between 12-14w, and I could always fint it after 14w.

  • Someone posted they heard the heartbeat using the sonoline B at 8 weeks.  I just ordered mine yesterday and ordered the 3mhz as opposed to the 2mhz because the 3mhz is more sensitive and able to detect the heartbeat earlier on.  They were the same price.  I ended up paying around $54 for mine and did the expidited shipping so about $62 total.  Mine is suppose to arrive on Monday and I'll be 8w5d, so we'll see if it works.  I'm sure I'll be exploding on this board if it does.

  • I have the sonoline B and found it for the first time at 9 weeks 4 days. I learned that I needed to have an empty bladder to find it (which is the opposite for most people), lots of gel, and look very low (like right above the pelvic bone).  I am so glad I bought it, it provides so much relief now that my morning sickness is gone.
  • I too got the Sonoline B and found the hb at 9w5d the first time.
