Hear that "aaaaahhhhh"? That is a sigh of relief. I received my handy dandy doppler today courtesy of overnight DHL service, and to my surprise - it worked!! I was really thinking it might be too early, so had talked myself into being fine, even if I heard nothing. So I jellied up the wand started slowly rubbing it on my flab down there and after about 45 seconds found the right spot and there it was. My husband, ever the skeptic, made me put it on my heart too to make sure that's not what we were hearing. But the beats were way different. Little Lefty is much faster. I didn't realize the doppler I got doesn't give me a reading of the bpm - but oh well. I really don't need to know that - just need to hear it and know all is well. I have a feeling this thing is going to be my new addicition and that my itty bitty tube of gel isn't going to last very long.
3 month rental of doppler - $84
Overnight shipping via DHL - $20
Peace of mind upon hearing our baby's ticker - priceless

So glad you were able to pick up Lefty's heartbeat. I can't even imagine how much better that must make you feel.
and thanks for the good wishes...I hope my leftie works out as well as yours did ;)
yep, 'aaahhhhhhh...' I get that! Yay, Lefty, good heartbeat!
Yay for piece of mind!!!
Hey there. Thanks for the comments! I just caught up on your posts, and it sounds like things are going well! Good luck in your next week of waiting until the u/s! I'm sending you lots of prayers.
I'm so happy you could hear! I was worried that it wouldn't work just yet and you'd be sad and stressed. Is it weird that I feel like I'm gonna call him/her Lefty forever? It might just be my weird auntly nickname:-)
That's so amazing. I teared up reading this!! Congrats!
