When To Use A Home Doppler?
Hi ladies,
I have bought a home doppler test and dyyying to use it but would like your thoughts on it first.. my first and most important is: at how many weeks can you use the home doppler to hear the heartbeat? Im currently 16 1/2 weeks...
Thanks

Hi Emma Iv been looking into it myself and everywhere Iv read it says people at 12 weeks pick up a heart beat!
give it a go and let us now which one you bought as I'm still yet to buy mine.

I first heard my baby's heart beat at my midwife appointment and I was 17 weeks then I bought my own don't panic if you cant find it straight away sometimes it took ages to find it but now I'm nearly 22 weeks I find it straight away it's the best sound ever 😍
Thanks Emma my midwife appoitment is not till 4th of January due to christmas and new year and i just cant wait! Lol ill use it i between christmas and new year and see what I get x and Chloe I'l let you know x
There amazing especially with my placenta been at the front sometimes I don't feel him as much as other days so it's really good just for some reassurance 😊
Hi Emma,
I have heard mine consistently since I was only 9 weeks probably my LO must be in a good position. Anyways have a look on youtube so you can tell the difference between your heartbeat the placenta and the babys heartbeat and give it a go it is really great.
Try not just moving side to side and up and down but try pressing in a bit and holding the doppler at different angles, thats usually how i find mine.
Good luck!!
