Fetal Monitors

niknac asked:


I have been giving a sheet to monitor fetal movement but I’m never sure if when she is moving if she is done moving. How can I be absolute sure that I’m not counting one movement as more than one.
I’m 37 weeks

When they put the internal monitor in me it hurt really bad. I asked them to remove it and they said that because the external monitor wasn’t reading properly the internal was a necessity. When my son was born I noticed an indent on his temple. I didn’t think anything of it until a friend told me she refused the internal because it can scar the baby! Is this true? If so I am furious w/ my doctor for not explaining any negative effects on my little boy. He is 5 months now and the mark is still there and seems to be getting more obvious as he is growing. Please let me know if this mark is possibly from the monitor.

I would love to be able to have a fetal heart monitor to hear my baby’s heart beat whenever I wanted to…. but i would like one that is like the type they have at the doctors office… not the cheapie at walmart because i have heard mostly bad things about them and they are a waste of money.

Where can i rent/buy one for a good price? Im trying to keep it $100 or less. Oh, and i’ve already peeked at Ebay but i’m hoping i can find somewhere else to get it from.
Roula…

it wasn’t a fetal heart monitor that he had bought it was an ultrasound machine i believe.
