Has anyone used the summer brand fetal heart monitor?

Q. I am 17 and a half weeks pregnant and I bought the summer brand fetal heart monitor at babies r us today. I tried to use it and heard mostly loud, annoying static and once I got it to quiet down while pressed against my belly i still couldn't hear much of anything. I am just wondering if anyone else has used this product successfully. I know I am still about 8 weeks early for when they suggest to start using it for best results but I am sort of curious about if it will even work then.

A. Personally, I think they're all crap :(
I haven't had any luck with the ones you can buy at BRU or other stores. At 17.5 weeks, you should be able to pick up a HB with a doppler.
You would've been better off renting one of the good ones from one from the rental websites.
Can you return the ones from BRU?


Need help finding a great baby monitor?
Q. Can anyone reccommend any good monitors? Alot of my friends are registering for the Summer Infant Video Monitor from Babies R Us, but I've seen that they got horrible reviews. Any help?

A. That happens to be the monitor I have and I absolutely love it. I can see my baby when she sleeps. It has saved me many trips to her room worrying if something was wrong. She is now 13 months old. The best part is, I just had a second baby 3 weeks ago and when I put her in her crib I wont have to buy another monitor. Just another video that will hook up to the second channel on the actual monitor so all I have to do is switch channels to see my girls sleeping. That's the one I would have recommended for you.


Does anyone know of a heart monitor that works during pregnancy?
Q. I had seen the Babies-R-Us one had bad reviews I was hoping someone knew of a sucessful product.
where can i get a heart monitor that works?

A. I found a good one on Amazon.com that I've been using and I find the heartbeat every time. It's only $25 dollars, so if it works then awesome, obviously you haven't shelled out tons of money and if it doesn't.. well obviously you haven't shelled out a ton of money! lol. I love it, and you can hook it up to a computer or your stereo system at home to let everyone else hear the baby. Or use a good pair of headphones and listen on your own. I just use a little bit of lotion or baby oil and works good :) I can find the heartbeat within a minute. Never once have I 'not found it' so I haven't been stressed out.. and obviously if you don't find it, don't stress either the baby could be laying in a weird position. It'll be quick sounding... like a train or a horse, much faster than your own. I'll post the link below!
