Anyone else have a home fetal heart rate doppler? How many weeks were you when you could pick up baby's heartbeat? :)
I got one today in a bundle of maternity clothes from another mom and couldn't find him in there. Lol I'm 13 weeks.
@gennbby, yes it does you can put it over your own heart to try it out do u know the difference between outside sound and the heart and as long as your 30 weeks plus it will work fine
@leangocrazy @gennbby apps like that use the phones microphone. It picks up any noise, even no noise at all and creates a beat. It's no different than if you stuck a regular microphone like you would use on stage to your belly. It wil just pick up the static from surrounding noises or slights movement against skin. It can't pick up anything through the layers of skin, muscle, fat, and then the amniotic fluid to the baby. You need ultrasound sound waves to get through all of that and then detect the change in the frequency of the sound waves. The echo is sent back to the device which the device translates into the heartbeat sound you hear.
@jessicavillanueva92, yes we were there 2 years ago after going to orange beach on vacay and meeting Kari and Bj then we followed them back to Helena...
@lesleyandjustinsimpson I was wondering if there would be anyone here who knew of this little town. Lol!
@badadvicemom not that I know of. Never had any doctors tell me anyway. Lol
But you have to be some where it’s silent like laying down in bed
