Re: Has anyone bought a fetal heart doppler?

i was thinking about it but i decided against it since i knew i would drive myself bonkers using it all the time...even at almost 39 weeks sometimes the nurses have a hard time getting a steady hb with it...

my advise would be to forgo it, you don't want to cause yourself unnecessary stress if you have a hard time using it Chat Icon

I bought one for my daughter on EBaby. It was brand new. It cost about $75 with shipping. I received it in a couple of days. She doesn't use it often, maybe every couple of weeks.

I have one. My sister actually bought it from babybeats.com. This is the 5th pregnancy it is being used for so it was well worth the money. I never had trouble finding the HBs and for me it was a big stress reliever.

Re: Has anyone bought a fetal heart doppler?

Well worth the money!!!! It was around $90. I bought the storkradio.
I bought it with DD and loved having it and hearing her anytime I wanted.
I also let FIVE of my friends borrow it to ease their minds, heat, and soul when you have those "i dont really feel pregnant today" kinda days.
I have used it a few times this pregnancy with DS but it is nice to listen when I want to hear him or having an ehausting day.
Money well spent for me and my friends/ family loved it too!!

I got one off of ebay too for about $75. I used it more in the beginning but once I could start feeling the baby move I pretty much stopped. I loved having it especially it being my first pregnancy and being nervous about the 1st tri.
