Hi guys this is my first post, so here it goes.

I'm currently 11weeks pregnant with my second and very impatient 😁 Just used my Doppler and I'm not sure if I got my heartbeat or baby's I got 139(baby's I think) and mine 65-84 (I think), I haven't done this since my first 5years ago, please tell me if this is normal?

if your HB was 139 I would be rather concerned! Thats definitely baby

Sounds like baby! I did have a reading of around 125 regularly that wasn't baby (he's always around 140-150).

Best thing I found was listening/watching people videoing themselves using a Doppler - most of the time you can put "Doppler xxx weeks pregnant" and there will be someone who would have made a vlog. It really helped me when I used my Doppler as I used to convince myself I was hearing everything other than my baby.

People do scoff at Dopplers but I mostly found them reassuring. I was using one from 9 weeks but didn't get regular listens until about week 13-14.
