My doctor recommended I did not get one. She said most of her patients were not able to find the heartbeat often and had scares for no reason. Just something to consider.
My doctor recommended the same to avoid anxiety! Especially since baby can sometimes lay on their stomach which prevents those Doppler from reaching far down to pick up on their heartbeat. Try to just focus on baby’s movement. Especially as you get closer to the end of pregnancy, it’s important to keep track of your baby’s kicks as opposed to heartbeat. You are likely to have weekly doctor appts during third trimester so doctor should be able to track your baby’s heart rate for you. Best of luck!
It’s ok. Our doc couldn’t find it once and it was fine.

Thank you for sharing 🙏 trying not to stress
During my 11ish week appointment the nurse couldn't get mine on doppler and then the ultrasound nurse got it in seconds (she pressed a little deeper too not in an uncomfortable way though). The nurses laughed and said "that's the difference between a $50 tool from Amazon and a $50000 piece of equipment" lol. It takes a little while to find it too. My nurse said it's like looking for a cashew in a Watermelon.... that settled me a bit hope it does the same for you! If you can, try to wait and be excited every 4 weeks. Def tell your doctor and maybe they can teach you how to do it better and quicker.

Cashew in a watermelon… A very comforting image to consider and I can’t find it after two or three minutes!
