HB with stethoscope

In my "what to expect" newsletter for this week it said you can hear the baby's HB with a stethoscope now (23w). I tried this morning with no luck. Has anyone done this? Did you hear it? Any tips????

Re: HB with stethoscope

I was just researching the same thing...I want to try this since I haven't felt the baby move in a while...and I had been feeling it since 12 weeks...I am starting to freak out..

I think you need a fetalscope.

Re: HB with stethoscope

i honestly wouldn't even try it because the nurse had trouble finding the baby's HB with a doppler yesterday, i don't know that a stethescope is strong enough yet.

Re: HB with stethoscope

I was probably 23/24 weeks when i tried . My sister is an EMT and a physicians assistant and laughed at me when I told her what I was trying to do. She said "but you have no idea where the baby is even laying, you'll never hear it with that"

Needless to say - I did not find it
