I am 18 weeks pregnant and really want to get one of these either rent one or buy one. I have looked at Babies R Us but it said you cant hear until the 3rd trimester. So what device do you recommend? Thanks

i think its best you dont buy one, because if it was to drop or something you would stress yourself out. youre best to just leave it and wait for the dr appointment. so you dont worry yourself.
Why would you want such a thing? As long as your baby is moving, it’s heart is beating. There is also some indication that babies can hear that screeching ultrasound noise and they don’t like it. If you want to hear your baby on occasion buy a fetoscope they are safe, easy to use, and about $20 on ebay or amazon
I wouldn’t get one… They aren’t as good as the ones that the doctors have and what happens when you can’t find the heartbeat (because the baby’s in a weird position or something)? It’s better to just leave it up to the professionals
