Hearing you unborn baby's heart beat. |
|
|
I never had the chance to hear my son's heart beat unless I went for a scan, so this time round we bought one for home and it was truelly amazing. You sit there and it's surreal, this tiny little bundle is happily moving and growing and their heart beat
is a great way for you and your family to feel more connected. If you have one it means it is on hand when people come visit if you're ok with that. It gave me immense pleasure and at 2:30am when she wasn't kicking and I felt a little worried that I hadn't felt her so much that day I was able to use it and feel reasurred that all was well.
I know it can be an extra cost but you can borrow one from a friend or get a second hand one of ebay/amazon etc and then you can sell it on later!!
The sound is truelly amazing to hear in the comfort of your own home and with the people that you love as not all partners are able to go to the appointments and it can be upsetting for them to have not heard their baby's heart beat! There were tmes I couldn't hear my daughter's heartbeat, I kept up with my appointments and had regular checkups by profesionals.
This is a great present too for father's day!
A very important note: it isnt always possible to hear a heartbeat of your baby, sometimes this is due to the size, where they are laid and how they are laid, how far pregnant you are etc etc. There can be lots of reason why you can't hera a baby's heart beat so do not use this machine as proof. But also do not panic, if for any reason you are concerned please seek professional advice. Do not use this machine instead of going for proper appoinments and procedures-your baby is very important, please follow proper medical advice given to you.
