I bought a doppler from ebay and its from the website www.echostore.com and mine is a sonoline fetal doppler and its has always worked perfectly and i started using it at like 13 weeks it shows u digitally the heartbeat so you can tell where your heartbeat is (mines in the 80's) and the baby like to jump around a move away from me but is anywhere from 133-156 lol and the swooshing noise i was told and i think the book says its the placenta but it works great so maybe try a differnt doppler

ive always been very paranoid about having my mobile near my bump for exactly that reason you hear so many stories and dont know if theres actually any hard proof but i always keep my mobile out of my pockets just in case. And if you google the doppler some say not to use it too much becuase of the radio waves (or what ever it is) but its sort of a 50/50 debate and like i say no hard proof but again its a personal choice and i dont think they would sell them to pregnant women if they are dangerous but i did start restricting the amount of time i used mine when i started reading about it. Glad you found the HB you will be totally hooked now lol x

A mobile phone even interferes with the doppler partner sent a message and its made doppler sound static not a screeching noise like ... My mum was like it might up set the baby when on doppler and sending a message because goes through the doppler ?

My partner timed 10 seconds and counted 26 beats was very low down more to the left side aswell ....

i always sit up to use mine but i supose everyones different and your baby may well lay differently to mine. As for the loud noises the screeching tends to happen when you move the doppler even the smallest movement will make it do that you will know when the baby kicks it cause it will sound like a thud but the baby moving around can make a similar sound you will also hear like a swishing sound. The sound of the hiccups is very rythmic but i notice that sound more now that im furthur along not sure weather they would be that noticable to you yet. You really do have to stick with it, its a really good way of learning which each sound and movement is. as with the counting of the HB my mid wife does it for 10 secs but i just use my stopwatch on my fone and do the full minute. I can defo hear my own HB down there and found that first which is mego slow compared to the babys HB but at least that way you know the difference when you hear the babys. I take it you not found it yet?
