    I knew there were risks too and thats why i will not buy one however i have had (or will by Monday) 4 scans and am not even 10 weeks! i did insist however that the last one not be internal due to my bleeding

    Hi Skitten Pig

    I purchased a Doppler a few weeks ago online through a company called Clinical Guard – if you Google it you should find the website.
    It was around $300 but I wanted to go with quality, it is also FDA approved and fairly easy to use.

    If you do decide to purchase one just don’t go overboard with using it, the information I’ve read advises to limit use to 1-2 minute sessions daily or 2 x 10 minute sessions per week.
    I only plan to use mine every couple of weeks for a little reassurance.

    All the best with your pregnancy.

    Hi Skitten, just wondering if you ended up purchasing a doppler? I'm looking at one also and have found one on ebay I'm keen on, It's basically $190 with postage. Thought I'd check what you decided on before I get one

    Oh hey, I just noticed you are on the sunny coast too Where are you having bubs and do you have an OB?

    Hi Cherished

    I actually bought a doppler on ebay (first beats) for $100 (RRP about 400) but it seems highly likely i have been ripped off as it has been over 2 weeks and no doppler and no answers to my emails not happy...

    I am at Beerwah - where are you?

    Do you have many friends in the same boat as you - pregnant or with lil ones? i have few to be honest... one is Brisbane but my best friends have teenagers.

    Congrats on your first pregnancy i am 12 weeks friday and the first trimester is not what i would call 'fun' but..... all worth it as we are just so so thrilled to be pregnant!
