I was just being overly nervous...again haha !! my ultrasound showed a healthy little baby with a heartbeat of 178 !!! the baby was moving so much the dr couldnt get the sound to play but he measured it for us to ease my mind :)
thanks again ladies !

Thanks so much Ladies !!! im sure im just over reacting , its nice to have some reassuring words from others who have been in my place, sometimes i just feel so neurotic :P I wish i didnt worry so much, hopefully when i reach the second trimester i will finally relax !! Congratulations to you all ! thanks again :)

My baby hates the doppler too. I went in at 11 weeks and the doctor heard it but mine was too loud and the baby's was too faint so she did an abdominal US and was able to pick it up a little better but she still had a problem.. And my baby is fine So dont worry bc ur probably fine. (I know easier said than done bc I have suffered quite a few losses myself but you have to learn to relax bc whatever will be will be) Just put the thing away so you dont drive yourself crazy looking for it. You have a appointment tomorrow so you will find out either way then. no need to stress when you are probably fine anyway. Im sure you getting upset that you cant find it doesnt help you find it any better so if you can't put it away then try to relax and take a few deep breaths while you are doing it. Good luck!! Im sure everything is A-ok :)

Prop your butt up on some pillows to try and help get the baby from behind the pubic bone. Today it took me almost 30mins to find it. I had tears in my eyes. I found it right next to my hip bone and it was faint so I rolled on my side and checked again a little closer to the center and there it was clear as day. I've been checking since 8 weeks and never had such a hard time locating it. So try so proping and rolling! GL and if you still can't find call your Dr tomorrow to see if you can come in for a quick scan to ease your mind

I wouldn't worry too much. With my first, the DOCTOR couldn't find his heartbeat until I was 11 weeks along, and even then he was constantly running away from it. Some babies just don't like the doppler. Make sure you are laying down when you try, but I'd honestly just wait until your ultrasound. Try not to stress out. ::hugs::

i wouldnt worry. With my first she avoided the dopler like a fish out of water. She hated it. But yes there are times you wonnt find it, but if your really worried call the dr on monday. If its a really big thing call the ob at the hospital and talk to them. I find talking with them always made me feel better. Good luck
