Where can I buy a doppler in Australia?
This is mainly for Aussie’s ( because I live in Australia )
I want to buy a doppler ( fetal heart rate monitor ) not sure where to get one from. I know they are available on ebay, but I’d rather purchase one from a shop. Anyone know where to get one?
I asked at a chemist today but the bloke looked at me like I was stupid and seemed to think I was talking about a baby monitor. Tried to explain that this device was to listen to the baby’s heart BEFORE it’s born. LOL
I’m in Victoria.
I’m 20 weeks pregnant, and feel the baby kicking, I want one more for my partner so he can hear the heartbeat. He hasn’t been able to come to the ultrasounds due to work (new job).

buy one through your doctor or ask them where to buy one. They have access to the better ones you can buy.
However, personally by the time baby is big enough that you can easily find the heartbeat on doppler yourself, they are kicking around so you know they are okay. Its quite a waste of money unless of course you have cash to burn. You would be looking a at least a couple of hundred dollars for a reliable one.
Hahaha blokes!
i have only seen them in the back of baby magazines.
maybe a large chemist might be able to help - chain store type!
I really wanted one when i was pregnant however they aren’t cheap!
Good Luck
I am unsure of a hop that sells them, but I know of a couple of online sellers:
