It is pretty normal to hear "weird" heartbeats. I almost never hear a perfect heartbeat when I go in and I don’t worry about it at all because first of all the doc would let me know if something was wrong and second, I have had two other babies and know that its not always as perfect as books make it sound. Between the baby’s heartbeat, the mothers heartbeat, arteries and the umbilical cord you could get just about any sound. I’m sure everything is fine and you should look forward to the end that is coming near.

i have never experienced this, however, i would question is there a change for a multiple birth here?

I hired a doppler from i was 18 weeks till i was 22 weeks an it done nothing but ause me concern. My midwife also told me to stop using it. If there was any problems in your babies heart it would have been spotted at the scans.
