I bought one of those "baby heartbeat monitor"s (like the doctors have) and we asked the doctor if it would do any harm to the baby or my daughter and he said no. But we just got it today and already, we have listened to the heartbeat like 4 times for various family members. Is that too much?

Answer
nope, it shouldnt hurt the baby at all, so listen your little heart out ! it wont hurt you or baby. its awesome to hear the little heartbeat and know that theres a little one inside of you <3<3

Why is my babys heart beat slowing down?

Answer
How much is it dropping? 110-160 beats per minute is considered normal, according to the gynecologist I work with (and also according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists).

The baby may be falling asleep, or moving around such that the detector isn't reading it properly at that moment. A heart rate is also supposed to vary somewhat, it's termed being a reactive heart rate, and is what they would look for if they were monitoring you in a hospital.

If you're concerned though, call the labor and delivery nurses at the hospital you're going to.
