Have been looking at doppler units online, especially baby beats doppler that you can rent. Has anyone used this and would you recommend it? Are they easy to use and how early can you really detect a hb with one? Any brands you think are best? Thanks

I do have one. I rented it from baby beats.Com. It is very easy to use. They give you a free tube of lubricating jelly for your convenience too. I highly recomend it.

How many weeks are you? The website's say from 8-12 which is pretty broad.

Well I just went to the doctor august 3rd and that was the first time I heard the babies heartbeat and I was exactly 3 months at that time.I looked into the doppler units and think they seem very useful.The first time I heard the babies heartbeat my boyfriend wasnt allowed in because I am a minor. I think that renting a doppler unit makes you closer to your baby instead of having to wait until your next doctors visit to hear the heartbeat again.
