I think it was around midway through pregnancy. She sounded like a choo choo train. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-stethoscope-to-listen-to-baby#post-49300 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 11:28:22 +0000 winniebee 49300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is a doc and has one at home. I'm 20 weeks and have tried listening but haven't heard anything yet (though, could be due to my anterior placenta). I'm sure I'll keep trying to listen as the weeks go by. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-stethoscope-to-listen-to-baby#post-49299 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 11:27:17 +0000 heffalump 49299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't... I would also get obsessed and freak out if I didn't hear something when it would probably just be user error. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-stethoscope-to-listen-to-baby#post-49292 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 11:20:45 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 49292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know @bee got one. I decided not to go that route because I know I would be "obsessed" with listening to it all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-a-stethoscope-to-listen-to-baby#post-49288 Mon, 09 Jan 2012 11:18:14 +0000 Mrsbells 49288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm nearly at the end of my 2nd trimester and sometimes I really want to hear the baby heartbeat especially when I havent felt her move in a long while. I didnt want to get a fetal doppler because I'm worried I will over use it, so I decided to get a stethoscope instead since it can be used in many other ways as well. Did anyone else go this route? </p>
