Intrusive Parents: That's Who We Are

posted by Mommy

We went out to Target after dinner to pick up BeBeSounds fetal hearbeat monitor system since we're on our 27th week of pregnancy now. Many web sites says that the baby heartbeat is getting stronger and can probably be picked up using a monitor.

Well, we laid down and tried to listen but here were some strange noise we heard instead:

  • static

  • gurgle gurgle

  • Sci-Fi engine sound: which later turned out to be an airplane passing our house! LOL!

  • Tabitha burping: Oopsie!!


Then our son-to-be got tired of having the monitor pressed against his home started pushing back. He pushed right at the monitor and almost knocked it off of my hand. So I moved to another spot, and he found the spot and again pushed back. I moved to another area and he pused back again. Sigh! I guess at least he drawing his privacy boundaries at such a young age already!

Of course, all this was happening while Daddy-to-be fell asleep listening to static and my stomach noise!

Guess we'll have to try it out again later!

I've found that at 30 weeks my husband can actually hear the heartbeat just by resting his ear against my belly. Thankfully the baby kicks and moves enough that we can tell exactly where in the massive belly it's currently residing.
