Frequently Asked Questions How Does A Fetal Doppler work?
A Fetal Doppler listens to the sounds of very small, high frequency sound waves that are reflected from within your womb. These sound waves are picked up by the main part of the Fetal Doppler and then amplified through the doppler headphones so that you can hear the sounds clearly. Many sounds can be heard, including your baby’s heartbeat, which is quite distinctive and easily identified. You can also hear little kicks and hiccups when your baby grows larger.
