Angelsounds Fetal Doppler

Welcome to BabyHeartMonitorUK.co.uk. Your online resource for choosing a baby heart monitor.

Angelsounds are the best selling brand of home baby heart monitor in the UK. This is largely due to their competitive pricing, appealing design and ease of use.

The Angelsounds fetal doppler can be used from around 12 weeks into the pregnancy. Bear in mind that the earlier into pregnancy you are, the longer it may take to detect the baby's heartbeat – even a trained midwife can take several minutes to locate exactly the right position to hear it. As the pregnancy progresses and the baby grows much larger it should become much easier to get the transducer in the right place and you may hear other sounds such as kicks and even your baby's hiccups. Ultrasound gel must be used at all times with your baby heartbeat monitor, otherwise it will not work. A 250ml bottle is included with most Angelsounds products.

For privacy purposes, the Angelsounds Fetal Doppler allows you to listen to your baby's movement through headphones. These are supplied with the product. You can record your baby's heartbeat and other sounds directly onto cassette so you can share it with family members or friends, or even to keep as a treasured keepsake. There is also a facility to record the sounds to a CD or your home PC. As well as recording the baby's sounds, some parents use this facility to make a CD of the mother's heartbeat (which is, of course, also detectable with the high sensitivity probe) which can then be played to the newborn baby as soothing white noise. Unlike some other brands of home fetal doppler - including some of the most expensive ones available - a recording cable is included.

The Angelsounds fetal doppler receives rave reviews from people who have purchased it, and rightly so. This product offers peace of mind to anxious parents-to-be that all is well with the baby (please note, however, that a home baby heart monitor should not solely be used to check the wellbeing of the baby and it is still important to attend all antenatal appointments). It also aids the bonding between mother and baby and helps involve other family members in the pregnancy, whether it is the father, grandparents or even older children.

If you are considering buying a baby heart monitor, the Angelsounds brand cannot be beaten on quality and value for money.
