Dopplers.. someone shoot me!

[Tanya]

Thanx all,

Doesn't help that now I am obsessed and I just read a woman had the same thing happen and m/c a week later!! D'oh!

Don't think about it, Don't think about it, Don't think about it, Don't think about it, Don't think about it!

Dont stress I know it's hard not to but it's apparently very common to not be able to find a heartbeat with the home dopplers. Bubs has probably just moved into a position where it's too far away from the doppler. I remember early on when I went to the hospital the mw was having trouble because every time she found the heartbeat the baby moved before she could get a proper reading. Bubs has lots of room to move in there atm it's probably just hiding.
Or like the others said maybe you have an anterior placenta.
I'm sure everything will be fine.

i know it's hard not to stress - but even the ob couldn't find the hb with our baby at 21 weeks! one of my friends is 17 weeks & it took the midwives two or three attempts to find hers too.

The midwife couldn't get my baby's heart beat with it the other day!! So, don't stress if you can't.

We figured there must be a heart beat because my little boy kept kicking me and the scanning microphone.

They're an interesting implement, but not necessarily a completely accurate thing to use.

DON'T PANIC!!!

My placenta is anterior so I can hear a HB yet I keep trying though!
