I had one when I was pregnant, it worked well. But my baby stayed in the same spot most of the time, her back was up against my side, so I always found her beat easily.

When looking , you gotta press hard sometimes

I liked mine found my daughter's heartbeat easy around 10 weeks but couldn't find my son's until around 14 weeks.

I got one for my mom anxiety during pregnancy and loved it! It is safe for the baby, and I just used aloe Vera as gel. Sometimes because your baby may be very active it could take a while or mine could feel the coldness of the gel so she would move away from the Doppler! I would sometimes have to chase her with it lol.

I wanted one so bad but my husband wouldn't let me get one because my last pregnancy ended in a late miscarriage where they couldn't find her heartbeat and he thought I'd go crazy using it all the time

Small head reported following 20 week scan

Has anyone else had it flagged that their baby is in the bottom 5th percentile for head size?

They said everything was fine whilst we were in the scan and then I got a phone call the next day saying that it’s on the small side and we’re being referred to a paediatric specialist at St George’s. Has anyone else had this and how did things go??

Would you bring 9 week old to a family party of 35+ people?

These are also people who will want to pass the baby around and get a turn to hold him. He just got his 2 month shots two days ago

Exercise 6 weeks after c section

What movement did people start to introduce? I won’t do anything too vigorous until I’ve seen the pelvic physio as I don’t want to compromise anything that may have been extremely weakened through pregnancy! But just wondering what types of classes/movement people started off with?

Is this normal??

I’m 29 weeks pregnant and having really aching legs and they’re all lumpy and swollen. Above the knee and behind the knee . Should I be worried ? My legs have never looked like this up until a few days ago. ??
