Fetal Heart Monitoring is an important part of prenatal care, as it can help to inform you and your Practitioner about any possible pregnancy complications. And many pregnant mums find that nothing is more exciting than hearing their baby’s heart beat for the first time!

Typically, an expectant mother goes in for a check-up once every month, and the baby’s image is displayed on a screen, while the delighted parents listen to the fetal heart beat. Nowadays, you can listen to your baby’s heartbeat at home, using portable ultrasonic home Fetal Doppler baby heart rate monitors.

At about 8 weeks or more into pregnancy, you can start to hear you baby’s heart beat with a fetal Doppler right at the comfort and privacy of your home. The baby’s heartbeat is usually between 120 and 170 beats per minute (BPM), much faster than the mother’s heart rate.

Fetal dopplers are based on ultrasonic technology and are safe to use at home, without the help of your OP. However, it is generally advisable to use fetal Doppler which meet the BS or CE or ISO 9001 or FDA standards.  Furthermore, you don’t need to monitor the baby’s heart beat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Moderation is the best policy for everything in life.

The AngelSound Fetal Dopplers represent good value for money. They are very easy to use, offer excellent sound quality, and conform to safety standards. You can hear the baby’s heartbeat from 10-12 weeks into pregnancy and can also record the sound to tapes/computers for email and storage. They are the best selling home Fetal Doppler heart beat monitors amongst mothers in the UK. 

16 out of 16 mothers who reviewed the JPD100S PINK ANGELSOUNDS FETAL DOPPLER in Amazon awarded this product a five-star rating.

The ANGELSOUNDS GREEN FETAL DOPPLER is also highly rated.
