Hi ladies...I was just wondering...for those of you who have dopplers how often do you use them? I'm slightly addicted to mine and use it every day. Just worried it might be too much. It's reassurance for me more than anything after the problems iv had. Oh and I fell up the stairs today (stupid i kno!) didn't hit my belly at all but jolted myself and have used it twice since to make sure bubs is ok!!!
 
I go through phases of worrying a lot then use it every day. Even though i know you shouldn't just reassures me so much

Now I'm feeling kicks I do use it less x

I don't use mine every day, just a couple of times a week for reassurance.
Been using it less since I started feeling movements though x

I use mine every day . It's gives me the reassurance I need xxx
 
I usually only do it once or twice a week, but bubs has changed position over the last few days and not felt as many movements as a result. So used it twice in the last 3 days!
Normally I'd prefer just to use it once a week though xx
 
I was addicted to mine " big time" lol. But i had my reasons for that, i then limted to twice a week & it's now a monday only hehehe. There is no harm using it everyday if you wanted too. :)
 
Still using mine everyday as still feeling absolutely no movement! damn anterior placenta. Think I will use it less when feeling movement but for now the reassurance is fantastic as I think I'm the only one on here who isn't feeling a thing at this stage
 
I can't wait to feel bubs move! I think once I do i won't use the Doppler as much. Im 16+3 now and people seem surprised when I say I havnt felt movement yet. I'm quite slim and apparently you feel earlier if ur slim?! Iv been told it feels like pops but I have such bad wind (sorry!!!) I don't think ill be able to tell the difference! Xxx
 
At start I was using mine every other day then reduced it to 1 or 2 times a week. Now I'm feeling movements I seem to rarely use it. Last week though LO went through really quiet spell and I got worried so used it 3 days in a row.

I didn't feel any real "pops" until about 19 weeks and I'm normally size 10. I think you will be able to tell difference between the "pops" and wind.

Good luck hunni xx
 
I only use mine once every 2 weeks or so. I heard that the high pitched sound waves can be a bit disturbing for baby, so only like to use it once in a while.
^^ please note this may be bullshit, so don't worry about it. Just didn't want to take the chance.
 
Hi Ladies,

I have borrowed one but apparently it doesnt pick up the babys HB until 20wk + ive used it twice but dont really hear much. thought i heard a HB last night but couldnt decifer if it was mine or not plus a few what sounded like something moving or even kicking put i didnt feel anything either :(
 
You'll know if it's LO's hb...much quicker than your own. Hope you hear something soon x
 
it did sound quicker than mine are quite low too, like a heard of running horses lol!!
 
Since I've started to feel kicks and wiggles I use mine a lot less! But still maybe once or twice a week, just makes me smile :D.
 
I've always only used mine once or twice a week, but already on twice so far since Monday as the Doppler seems to be the only thing I can do to get lo to move if he is being quiet! And he will give me a few pokes, although I don't pester him too long :) xx
