Just wondering those mums to be that have been using them which ones you have been using? Is it like the big hand size one or like what they use in the hospitals? Thinking about getting one but not sure which ones are best? X

I used my sister in laws one when I was pregnant with my 1st, it was the size of a hand but shaped like a flat egg. Found it really good but only picked the Heartbeat up from about 20weeks I think. You can sit there for ages and just listen to it.

I bought two.. .both hand size ones. One was called summer from argos and the other was from amazon that played music and had a mircophone so you could speak to your baby, iv spent hours trying to find the heartbeat but with no luck :( im 32 weeks and sat last night with him squirming about under it and i still couldnt find it :( xxx

I borrowed my sisters one and it is a hand held. I picked up babys heartbeat from about 16 weeks. Clear as a bell!
