My SIL let me borrow her monitor, but I still can't hear the heartbeat on it, not sure how far along you're supposed to be. I'm almost 14 weeks. She got it from Babies R Us. I heard the heartbeat two weeks ago at the Doc's on his doppler. Guess his is wayyyyy better. Chat Icon

The one's you buy in the store are best used in the 3rd trimester. I had bought one and honestly at 37 weeks now, I still cannot find the heartbeat with that thing, only the doppler.
