hi - I'm nearly 17 weeks pregnant and just had an amnio yesterday (I'm 38). feel ok so far but am completely paranoid that I'll have a miscarriage as a result of the procedure. for whatever reason, I feel far more nervous about this than about receiving the test results. I miscarried in Jan. (for other reasons) so am probably extra hyped up about it all because of that.

was thinking of buying/renting a fetal doppler to hopefully give myself a little more peace of mind. there seem to be a lot of websites offering them. just wondered if anyone has used these, and if you can recommend (or not recommend) a site or brand of doppler that is good. thanks!

hi all well i said i couldnt afford one but after reading thread i bought one anyway from doppler mike..lol
It is absolutely fantastic..i do use it once a day as looking online all studies say there is no risk from it. It has been great to put my mind at ease and I am now enjoying my pregnancy...little tip i have found tho is that if u r having trouble finding heartbeat move doppler till u hear whooshing sound like wind blowing and the hb is usually around there.
