Shouldn't i worry? I tripped down the stairs this morning, spoke to a midwife who said everything should be ok. And now i can't hear a heartbeat! X

If you fell especially in stairs you should go in. I would personally. And if you've been able to always find it before then go in but it's up to you

I have one and used it like three times and put it away because it causes more worry and grief than needed during pregnancy. They're not accurate and you practically have to be due or a professional to always find baby especially early on

No those Doppler's don't always work & you really have to b so far along & the baby needs to be so big for some of those Doppler's to pick up a heartbeat
