exactly like the one from the dr office, or one from a store?? if its one from a store, they NEVER work that well at all… not until at least 30 weeks for an at home dopplar… if its one from the dr office you may just have it positioned wrong… good luck!

**That first guy doesn’t know what he is talking about - Trust me!** —– To that person a few spots down, that’s a dumb @ss name. He’ll be made fun of mercilessly. Our dopplar never worked. It has nothing to do with what "i don’t know what i’m talking about". It’s personal experience. @ss.

If it works really well, try doing it when you know he or she isn’t moving a lot. All that background noise is the baby along with blood whooshing through your body.

definitely!! That’s a great spot and where I heard my guy’s ALWAYS until about 30 weeks or so. Then it got more difficult for me. The weird sounds could be your child moving and swishing around! I loved my doppler!

At 22 weeks, your baby should be at the level of your umbilicus or just an inch or two or what we call 1 finger breath above the belly button. How much is the rental fetal doppler just curious. If you are gassy, you might be hearing other sounds as well. Remember that the womb is filled with fluid and sometimes you will be hearing some weird sounds. I have placed women on monitors several times, and many times before finding the heart beat, you can also hear some weird sounds. I would say that it is normal.

hey
i rented one from hi-baby.co.uk for £10 a month, just like the ones in a dr office, i got mine when i was 10 weeks, and also i found the heartbeat was very low down, and i could also hear a swishing noise, this is the placenta, there is alot of blood flow down there and things moving around, the abby moving around, all the noises you can hear are all perfectly normal

Did you do any research about what you’re exposing your baby to before you decided that you, as a non-medical person, were qualified to rent a medical device for the purposes of entertainment and fun???

Wow, and they wonded why rates of autism have spiked. Good job. Have "fun" while it lasts.
