Heartbeat Monitor

I got my fetal heartbeat monitor yesterday!  Yes, that's right.  The USPS delivered on Sunday.  I have no idea what that's all about, but I'm not complaining!

Anyway, with Abby, I rented one and paid every month.  I got a deal for $20 a month back then, but that same one is $45 a month now.  Plus, I'd still have to pay shipping on top of that, so you can see how it can add up over the course of a full term pregnancy.

This time, I learned from some moms online that there is a better option!  I went on Amazon and BOUGHT one for just $27 plus shipping!

I opened the box and found the heartbeat right away, so I am totally pleased with this decision!!!!  I knew from last time that hair gel worked just as well as the special gel they sell with the equipment, so I just used that instead and saved some more money.

I just can't believe I own this little thing for about the cost of renting one for just a month!  (Shipping considered, of course.)

  1. I noticed it's $59.00 today and a few people I know have had to pay the higher price. I guess I got lucky! I'm glad I jumped on that deal while I was available!!!
