Doppler @ doctor?

Has anyone’s doctor used a Doppler? What was the earliest they found the heartbeat?

After a missed miscarriage in June and chemical in August, my doctor is monitoring me pretty closely.

Two weeks ago, at 7.5 weeks we heard the heartbeat with a transvaginal ultrasound (152 bpm 💕), and now I’m going in tomorrow for a heartbeat check, but she said they’ll be using a Doppler and not doing an ultrasound. With only being 9.5 weeks I’m worried they won’t be able to pick the heartbeat up?

I imagine the dr office ones are probably stronger than what you can buy online, but I had heard the earliest you’d usually be able to find the heartbeat on a Doppler was around 12 weeks? I’m just nervous!
