I listen alllllll the time Right around 12 weeks is when they say you should be able to hear it with a true doppler without any problems. If I lived closer I would let you try it out!! It is great for the in between time when you don't have morning sickness anymore but you can't feel the baby move very often yet!!

They sell baby heartbeat monitors in stores like walmart but those are a joke unless you are in your third trimester and skinny The real dopplers can cost upwards of $500 but I rent mine for $27 a month.

How exciting!!!

WOW.... that is a neat idea. I didn't know you could rent them Maybe that is something I will have to look into. It was just SO neat to hear... LOL I wanna hear it again haha. I will have to check out that website. Thanks for that info.

It was so exciting to hear... we weren't able to hear it at last weeks appt. I was so glad it worked today.
