Babypulse is a portable fetal doppler similar to units used by your midwife, GP or obstetrician and is designed and manufactured by one of the leading fetal doppler companies for home use.

The unit is light weight and extremely easy to use with only an on/off switch and variable volume control to contend with. Babypulse has a highly sensitive transducer allowing you to detect your baby as early as 8 weeks.

The fetal heart sounds are easily located using the easy to manage transducer while internal signal processing minimises any noise artefacts.

You listen to baby's heart beat from the babypulse built in loudspeaker or you can plug in standard headphones and listen quietly yourself. The volume is controlled from the side of the babypulse.

You can even connect babypulse to your computer or tape recorder and record baby's heart beat for absent family and friends.

The unit is powered by a standard 9V battery, which provides over 9 hours of use.

Babypulse plus adds to the standard babypulse digital fetal heart rate display.

Using a large, clear LCD display the heart rate is easy to read and with a little practice is as easy to use as the standard babypulse.
