  • When I was 8 weeks I ordered a sonoline C doppler. & It came within a week. I spent one hundred, but it was completely worth it. It came with the doppler gel too. & I heard her little heart beat right away.
  • Awww Thats awesome :) I'm 7 weeks now and can't wait to hear it...I think it'll give me some relief bc all I keep hearing about is mc and I'm nervous to get on to the 2 trimester :p
  • It will give you tremendous relief! I had bleeding right before I decided to buy mine. And the dr. At the E.R told me more likely than not, that I would miscarrry. It scared me soo bad. He called it a subchorionic hemmorhage. But then my O.B told me it was normal, and very common, and assured me that I would be okay. Now I'm 31 weeks pregnant. But that thing was a life saver. Worth every penny. I researched different dopplers for days and decided it was worth the investment, and the reviews were really good.

  • Sorry! I didn't mean to post it twice. It froze on me.
  • thanks for that info :) I'm glad you answered, i'm new to forum and it seemed like nobody would put answer anything I wrote....i was snout to give up on it. lol Anyways I'm so excited for you and your little one! My husband & me can't wait, it almost doesn't seem real so I'm trying to keep my excitement down but its hard ;;)
  • About* not snout...this phone drives me bananas lol
  • I got one of the cheap ones from babies r us waste of money I couldn't hear anything till you could actually see the baby moving around my stomach.I am renting one now for 27 a month I love it. I lost my son in my last pregnancy and this takes some stress off of me
  • I got the prenatal listener from wal-mart last night i love it i can here everything that's going on in there not just the heart beat I'm 17w 4d so i only hear the heart beat every once i awhile but i can hear the baby moving around it awesome
  • @Debs where did you rent it from?
  • I think a doppler is a good idea were do you buy them and how much do they run for? How soon can you actualy hear the heartbeat. Sorry for all the questions I just would like to maybe get one
  • When I was having Amy I had one it was fab and very reasuring to listen to baby every day xx
  • I got line off eBay xx
  • Bellybeats.com cost around 27 a month I heard from reviews ppl heard the babys heart as early as 8 weeks
  • I ordered mine from pregnancy.org. I am keeping it for 3 months for $20 a month. Its a doppler like the doctor uses in the office. It also comes with the gel to use. I love it and you can order it for longer. I know the months you order it for then the price per month is cheaper. You also have the option to buy it if you like. They do have different dopplers too. I got one that displays how many beats per minute. I love it. I'm 20 weeks and you can use this s early as 10 weeks.
  • @melinda326 how long did it take to get to you?
  • My husband got me one for christmas we just found out then we where expecting and he remembered how I used to run to the dr a lot to here the hb lol my little bugger was not a big mover.... but I love it I use it several times a day it keeps me sane. It does not work earlier than 10 weeks the box says 12 but I found the hb at 10 I am now almost 13weeks. With number 2
  • How cool! I'm going to get onlineand order one. I'm 8 w today maybe by the time it gets here I will be able to hear it. I go tomorrow for my first U/s
  • @lilpeapod913 mine came 3 or 4 days after I ordered it. And that was regular delivery. I think it says to give it 3-5 business days. I love mine and it was very affordable. SOmeone on one of the other discussions mentioned that after you run out of the ultrasound gel that they send you that you could use aloe gel and it will work just as well. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I am enjoying mine.
  • I ordered mine online and I heard it at 8 weeks. It was 118 I think with tax, and express shipping. But I own it now, and I can use it for any future pregnancy. It works amazingly. And it was a life saver.
