Fetal doppler confusion, what on earth is going on?
I am 13 weeks pregnant and today received my doppler. Tried it out, and mine came with an LCD display which was displaying all these numbers like 200, 180, 120, 150 and they were changing every 5 seconds or so, BUT i actually could not hear anything?
I tried everything and still nothing, when i finally did hear a steady heartbeat, i think it was mine! It was only in this one spot and beating the same rate as my own heart.
I am worried now. Why cant i hear the baby? I am 13 weeks along and nothing. Im worried now.

All the more reason I’m not getting one….too much knowledge without professional input will only lead to relentless and unnecessary worry.
I know with myself, it takes the doctor a few moments to find the heartbeat and I need to be lying FLAT and QUIET.
Congrats and Best of luck.
