Baby Heart Monitor Information

Baby heart doppler devices use ultrasound to allow expectant parents to hear their baby’s heartbeat, often at as early as ten weeks of gestation.  There are now several baby heart doppler devices on the market available for over the counter sales, and they are not as expensive as you might think they might be.  Still, if you do not have the funds to purchase a baby heart doppler, you should consider renting one instead which is a much cheaper option (usually costing less than $50 a month).

There are now new baby heart doppler devices that have options to allow you to even burn a CD of your baby’s heartbeat while listening to it, creating a record that can be shared with relatives and cherished for years to come.

As the popularity of baby heart doppler devices has increased in the past few years, prices have also dropped substantially.  You may find some companies advertising sales of these devices for $500 or more.  Many of these devices are very sophisticated, and come with many add ons that you may enjoy (such as the CD burning ability).

But if you are looking for more affordable options, you may want to consider some of these much cheaper baby heart monitoring devices:

The Angelsounds Fetal Doppler device is an affordable baby heart monitor (costing less than $40 new!), that is also well known for its ease of use and reliability.  This is the most basic baby heart doppler device produced by angelsounds, and it has many positive reviews on Amazon as well.

If you are looking for something that has the backing of the FDA and mirrors one of the more sophisticated baby heart doppler devices you may have seen elsewhere on the internet, consider the Baby Fetal Heart Prenatal Doppler:

This device runs about $90 and has a speaker so you can listen without headphones.  It also operates at 3Mhz, the recommended frequency for the best doppler sound.

Finally, the Babyplus Prenatal Education System is an amazing baby heart doppler package that not only includes a state-of-the-art doppler device, but also some important educational literature to help with interpreting the results plus additional accessories such as ultrasound gel.

Given the importance of not just listening but also being able to understand and interpret what you are hearing, this device may be well worth the investment (about $225) for expectant parents.
