Fetal Doppler
9
The gestational chart shows about where you should be able to find your baby's
heartbeat as it grows each week.
Early in the gestation period place the receiver near the middle of the abdomen
above the pubic line but aiming down towards the pubic bone.
Move the receiver slowly while searching because the heart is so small and the
sound it makes so faint that it will be easy to miss hearing the heart if you move
too quickly.
Keep in mind that each mommy and baby is different so not being able to detect
the heartbeat early isn't a reason for concern.
If you are not able to detect the baby within 10 minutes we recommend taking a
break and trying again a few days later. However, if you are concerned about
any issues relating to your pregnancy you should contact your healthcare
provider for assistance.
As the baby grows, the heartbeats become stronger and it will be easier for you to
detect the sounds the baby makes.
We recommend keeping the session to less than 10 minutes at a time. we
recommend limited use in short intervals, infrequently and primarily after the
first trimester.
Make sure to continuously use plenty of coupling gel to reduce the static caused
by moving the probe around on the mother's belly. We recommend the use of
any of the following: Ultrasonic Gel, Aloe Vera, Medical ultrasonic coupling gel,
Baby Oil, Coconut Oil, Virgin Olive Oil or even Vaseline work well. DO NOT use
colored gels or lotions as this will not adequately protect the probe from
damage.
