Heard the heartbeat!!

14+5/40

Since about 10 weeks I have been sneakily trying to listen to the babies heartbeat at work (perks of being a midwife). Many midwives have said that they have found it much earlier than that but definitely not me! I have an anterior placenta though so that is probably why, I can pick up loads of placenta noise, just not the heartbeat itself.

I have also been a very naughty midwife and done against all the advice I would give my patients - I brought a cheap home doppler! At least I know what I am doing with it though right... Now I have finally picked little one up ill probably not use it!
