Bebesounds Prental Heart Listener
Posted: 06-03-04 09:03am

Ok my grandma got me one of them yesturday and I couldnt hear the heartbeat at first and all I could hear was computer running, my fish tank bubbling, and the cars driving by... I could hear my own hearbeat fine, and I could hear the babys kicks and swooshes just fine but there was this noise in the back ground so I couldnt hear the greatest, well anyways I shut all the windows and doors and I shut down the computer and I shut off the fish tank, I turned off the tv cuz you could hear that buzzing when it was muted, well after all that I heard my heartbeat in my stomach and a little heartbeat in the background, it was very faint, and confusing at times (i had to put my finger on my neck to be able to tell the dif between my pulse and the babys, and also cuz of the kicks and swooshes overpowering the sounds of the heartbeat). I think I just need to wait for the baby to be bigger before I can hear the heartbeat better... Ok but the funny thing is I pointed it up at the ceiling and I could hear their every movement up there and I could even hear them talking! Lol this is a good thing for people that like to listen into others conversations, haha now I will know what they say about us... They are our landlords so you know they talk about us.. Also I live across from a bank, and now I have something to do... I always wondered what they were talking about, cuz they sit there and laugh and talk about stuff just loud enough so you can hear them but not make out what they say. Hehe im gonna have some fun with this... Now when kevin pretends hes gotta do something in the bathroom when hes on the phone I can put it up on the wall and hear what hes talkin about and why hes gotta hide from me to be able to talk to them. Lol I listened to my kittys heart too... And she started purrin loud.

I have one and I had a lot of problems finding the heartbeat until I was like around 30 weeks or so. I can hear pretty good now. Most of those prenatal ones don't really work until your well in the 3rd trimester. They do pick up a lot of other noises too! Just keep trying and pretty soon you'll be able to hear it really well. Next time you o to the Dr. Watch where they find the heartbeat with the doppler.

Mine was only 19.99... My grandma bought it though, otherwise I would have spent the money on something else. Hopefully I can here the heart beat better later on, it says that they sometimes dont pick up the heartbeat til your third trimester, but there have been people to hear it before then.

I don't know why but it seems really weird that you would be able to hear what the people around you (in other apartments/rooms) are saying. That's crazy.

It was at shopko for 19.99, and you can also get it cheap at target... I know its under 24.99 at target for sure... I dont remember how much it was though...Its kinda crappy and a pain sometimes but if you dont mind blowing your money on it, it is kinda cool to have when your bored.

I hear the heartbeat beyond my heartbeat, I always hear both though. So I have to keep track my pulse, and I hear the babys so faintly I dont know if im imagining it cuz I wanna hear it so bad.
