Sorry you're going through that, Charlotte.
No one can make you do anything unless you let them
' But is that what I should be hearing looking out for idk because I have never used a doopler on my last pregnancy?
Im not a first mummy but a 2ND, I told my friend who I work with 'Im pregnant' and she was okay with it at first, but now she being real annoying 'do this' do that', 'don't let your partner be the birthing partner, let me' She is basically tell me what to do in this pregnancy.
Its so frustrating!
Yes I know what you mean, I think you 'should' be annoyed - if there planning trips and nights out without you, That's just not fair!Im not a first mummy but a 2ND, I told my friend who I work with 'Im pregnant' and she was okay with it at first, but now she being real annoying 'do this' do that', 'don't let your partner be the birthing partner, let me' She is basically tell me what to do in this pregnancy.

Oh Charlotte how annoying! I have a good friend at work who had 4 babies and she's been lovely, gave me a ton of pregnancy books too haha!
It's my 2 vest friends. I dunno if I'm being over sensitive but I just feel like they aren't that excited for me and are all of a sudden planning all these trips and nights out that I can't go on. They have always been friendly before but I'm the reason their friends and now I feel like they're almost going off without me! I do if I'm just being hormonal but it's getting me down!
@Charlotte people get irate about dopplers because they assume you're going to go 'oh everythings fine so i dont need to go to the midwife' - when in reality all I think when I use it is literally 'yep, baby is alive' and 'what a nice sound.'
I got grilled on my thread about dopplers on here for the same reason. If I thought for one minute something was wrong nothing would stop me from phoning the midwives, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy listening to the sound of my baby's heartbeat. They just assume you don't know what you're doing because not everyone does. I used one with my DD too, it was amazing. OH and I love laying in bed listening to the heartbeat and little flutters of baby kicking, can't feel them yet but we can hear them
I was always in hospital on the belly doppler with DD because she kept not moving for a day or so at a time, they used to monitor me for a few hours. I may not be a midwife but it only takes one to teach you what you're looking for, same way they learn, right?
