Hi Grub

I bought a fetal heartbeat monitor. Thought it would be nice for my MIL to hear as she doesn't live close by and you can record the sounds and email.

Unfortunately they generally advise that you can't hear anything until at least 21 weeks and as I have an anterior placenta (on the front) this will block the sound out for even more weeks. So I have put it away for the time being as I don't want to worry about not hearing anything....even though I know the reason why.

It is really a personal thing but it is possible to add even more pressure to an already stressful situation IFKWIM...

Forgot to add one more thing from my earlier post. As of tomorrow (20 weeks) our little bub will be legally recognised as a baby by the Australian Government. I know she is already our baby but until 20 weeks she is not recognised.
