[quote=Anonymous]Oh, for Pete's sake. They use the freaking doppler every time you go into the OB's office, and one OB I saw pointed out that if doppler or ultrasound posed significant risks, all the babies of people who work in OB and L&D would be in bad shape -- they sneak peaks and listens all the time at work. Last time I was in for an NST, the midwife even explained to my husband (a doctor) how to use the doppler to do informal NSTs at home since I'm contracting so much. I've loved having mine for the last two pregnancies, and as for the "false sense of security" argument, why not go to the doc every day to see if something is wrong, or not go at all since something could go wrong the moment you leave? IMO, using the doppler occasionally was waaaaay better in terms of anxiety than being blindsided by a missed miscarriage at a doctor's appointment weeks after the fact, which is why I got it in the first place.[/quote]
