Should I be worried that my baby’s heart rate is being picked up lower in my tummy than usual?

Question

im 19 weeks.
Baby has been moving a lot and I have been picking up the Heart rate closer to my belly button. 
But today she hasn’t been moving much at all and I freaked out because I couldn’t find the heart rate, until I went really low down to almost my pubic bone. The heart rate is the same. But I’m worried. Should I be worried?

Answer

And this is one of the reasons why at home Doppler's aren't recommend! If you are worried call your midwife or obgyn! None of us here can tell you if it's normal or if baby is fine.

Answer

Throw the damn thing out the window! Home dopplers will cause only anxiety. When I was pregnant with my daughter after two miscarriages, I wanted to get one so badly, but I was advised not to do that. Go to doctor if you have any worry.

Answer

I’d be more worried about my own judgement for using a doppler when they’re not recommended than my babies health. I’d fear for their life for the other bad decisions I’m bound to make.

Answer

Movements won't be regular for almost another 10 weeks and the baby is going to be constantly moving around. At only 19 weeks, your baby still has plenty of room to bounce all around and you will find the heartbeat in many different places.

Answer

I wouldn’t be worried, since you’re only 19 weeks the baby has a lot of room in there and could be laying in any position.

Answer

No completely normal, I can only feel movements that low down x
