Pregnancy Gear You Need To Have

Fetal Heartbeat Monitor

You can source some pretty neatheartbeat monitors for later in your pregnancy. It's said that around the fifth month of your pregnancy, your baby's heart should be strong enough to be detected on these at-home monitors. With that being said, the position of your baby will have a lot to do with whether or not you can properly hear a heartbeat, as well as your weight.

There are more sophisticated versions, such as the Doppler monitor, which is comparable to the one in which your physician uses. With that being said, they are fairly costly. In most cases, these devices allow you to hear your baby's heartbeat somewhere around 10 to 14 weeks of pregnancy. Many women find this to be a highly rewarding experience while putting their mind to rest between appointments.
