We ordered a doppler (might sound a little crazy) for peace of mind. I feel like it has been the best investment! I have only used it a few times, but it has been helpful to keep me sane and calm. Heart rate is usually somewhere between 150 and 160. Found it as high as 170 before, but not normally that high.

I always wished that we had one, so I do not think you're crazy at all! It helps at the end too!
ReplyDeleteWhat is a doppler?
ReplyDeleteIt basically listens for the baby's heartbeat and magnifies the sounds inside of mom. You can hear stomach/digestive noises in some areas. You can hear my heartbeat also. We bought it to hear the baby's heartbeat. Once the baby is 10 weeks a doppler can pick up the heartbeat because the baby is big enough.
