Have you heard your own heartbeat in your stomach?

Question

Has anyone found their own heartbeat when looking for baby's on the Doppler? I read online and some have mentioned it but I wanted to check. 
I am 9+6 and have tried the last 3 days. I find my own heartbeat (very similar when I put it up to my own heart) on both sides of my stomach but not in the middle. 
Has this happened to others?

Answer

The heartbeat on both sides is from the blood flow to your ovaries and will typically be a little faster than the beat of your heart.  Look for baby in between those two strong heartbeats from your ovaries. If you hear the strong beat, you may be too close to the sides an need to angle the Doppler more towards the middle. Press firmly as well. I can find baby just by pressing a little firmer and when I release the pressure, even though I haven’t moved my position, the sound disappears. So you may have to press deeper

Answer

I can see my heartbeat on my stomach when laying down. Super normal to find your heart beat there.

Answer

You most likely won’t hear baby’s heart beat until 10-11 weeks! But make sure you are checking low enough my midwife was very very low!

Answer

9+6 is pretty early to find it too. I didn’t find It until after 10W. Mine is very low (pubic bone) and in the middle and I had to press down hard too. Sometimes it takes me a long time too. Don’t get discouraged, give it another few days/week & try again!

Yes you can hear your heartbeat in your stomach.😂

Yes! You need to go lower- right above pelvic bone. Where you would button your pants.

Answer

I’ve also read the placenta sounds like a heartbeat and it’s usually close to the babies
