moms the word - 124 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I have never used them except the one the doc uses at appointments. I just don't see how it is beneficial. Normally you should be able to hear a heartbeat externally through a doppler at 10 to 12 weeks pregnant.

Debra - 124 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Just beware of the risks involved with exposing baby to doppler waves. While reasurring to you, baby may be harmed by doppler waves. And like exposing baby to other harmful things- such as avoiding alcohol, sushi, chemicals and more... please think about this carefully before you go and do it. Just b/c its available for purchase, does not mean that its been researched as safe.

Its only a cheap system - about £28 but it works and we even managed to use it to record the baby's heart on the computer.
