The Skywin Fetoscope for Baby Heartbeat Detection - Heartbeat Monitoring At Home
INSTRUCTION ON HOW TO USE, A mother needs to lay down in a comfy and quiet area (do this in a very silent room since the fetal heart tone will be very faint). Make sure the earpieces are placed tightly in your ears, no outside air moving around the pieces. Listen to all parts of your belly (if you are still in the 2nd trimester or less, it will be most likely under the belly button). Place the Pinard horn where your baby's heart and rest your chin/forehead on the device for added pressure. Slight pressure will ensure a clear auditory path. After locating the fetus' heartbeat, count the beats per minute. It should be between 120-160 bpm. If you don't hear anything, don't give up! Try listening again at a different time, since babies tend to move around, hopefully one of the movements will place his back closer to the belly so that you can hear the heart. Remember it's definitely harder to hear heart sounds in very younger fetuses (although electronic dopplers can detect heart tones as early as 5-6 weeks gestation, stethoscopes and festoscope typically aren't strong enough to hear anything until 18-20 weeks gestation, which is about halfway through second trimester). Occasionally you may accidentally be listening to the maternal heart beat because you're listening to a maternal artery rather than the fetal heart. If unsure (especially if maternal pulse is quite high) you can double check by feeling for mom's pulse on the wrist - if it matches the heartbeat that you're hearing then it's maternal pulse, not baby, so move the scope to a different location and listen again.
IMPORTANT NOTES that while the Skywin Fetoscope for Baby Heartbeat Detection offers an opportunity for heartbeat monitoring, it should not replace professional medical care. Regular prenatal check-ups and consultations with healthcare providers remain crucial for monitoring the health and well-being of both the mother and the baby
parents to carry it wherever they go. This means that they can share the magic of hearing their baby's heartbeat with family and friends, creating a shared experience that strengthens the bond between generations.
