If you haven’t heard about fetal dopplers yet, they’re handheld devices used to listen to your baby’s heartbeat—similar to an ultrasound.
Although these devices are typically used by doctors and midwives, they’re now available to use at-home for expecting parents. At Baby Doppler, we offer affordable and safe devices, but there are many more perks of buying from us.
In this post, we’re sharing 9 reasons you’ll love getting your fetal doppler from BabyDoppler.com.
#1 Our Business Was Inspired By Our Own Needs
“We didn’t start this as a business. We didn’t care about making money. All we wanted was to get this amazing product to women who needed it,” recalls Baby Doppler’s founder, Maria Gorobets.
After trying to conceive in 2010, Maria and her husband experienced a devastating miscarriage. Her second time pregnant, Maria felt something was wrong despite doctors telling her everything was normal. Following her motherly instinct, Maria demanded an ultrasound and found out she was right: Her baby’s heartbeat kept dropping because the umbilical cord stopped transferring nutrients. This discovery birthed not only a healthy baby boy but a new passion to promote the home use of fetal dopplers. Fetal dopplers are a safe way for parents-to-be to feel secure and stress-free.
*These devices are not used to diagnose any medical problems during pregnancy. Please consult your doctor about any medical questions.

#3 FREE Ultrasound Gel
We know the excitement of receiving a doppler and that you’ll want to test it out right away. We won’t make you make an extra trip when you find out you need additional supplies.
Unlike other brands, when you receive your Baby Doppler fetal doppler, you have everything you need to get started. That’s because we make sure to pack in batteries and an ultrasound gel sample. The sample should be enough for you to get started and learn how to use the device. However, you’ll want a bottle of ultrasound gel that you can continue using throughout your pregnancy. Luckily, we also sell full bottles for a few extra dollars, so it’s a good idea to add one on to your order:
- 60ml sound enhancing gel for $3.95
- 250ml sound enhancing gel for $6.95
- 3-pack of 250ml sound enhancing gel for $19.95
#4 Money Back Guarantee & Hassle-Free Returns
We know you’re going to love your fetal doppler. But, if for any reason you don’t, you can easily return it within 90 days of the purchase date.
If you receive a defective product, we’ll simply send you a return shipping label you can print and attach to the box. Once we receive it, we’ll send out your replacement. If you accidentally order the wrong model, we will exchange it for free
#5 Affordable Price & Coverage
All our fetal dopplers are sold at reasonable and affordable prices. For example, our Sololine B model provides an accurate read while still being easy enough to use at home for $39.95. If you’re looking for a higher-end, professional model, our Ultraline 1000 Baby Activity and Heartbeat Monitor is still affordable at $59.95.
Since we sell high-quality devices, you can expect them to last through multiple pregnancies (or gift it to a pregnant friend if you’re finished having babies).
We also accept FSA and HSA coverage. After you add your selected fetal doppler to your cart, use your FSA/HSA card at check out. To learn more, read How to Use FSA and HSA Card.
#6 Customer Service and Support
From the decision making process to understanding how your new doppler works, we’re here for you!
Our customer service line can help you decide which baby monitor is best for your needs. If you have any questions about using it or how to get an accurate heartbeat, we want to help you through that too. Call 1-800-590-2767, email support@babydoppler.com or fill out our contact form.
#7 Fetal Doppler Education & Resources
We sell fetal dopplers, but we’re also passionate about educating people on the correct home use of them. Without learning to properly use your baby monitor, you may mistake placenta or your own heartbeat for a baby heartbeat. This can lead to false reassurance and an incorrect reading. To prevent this, we provide a ton of resources to educate moms and dads-to-be.
You can start by reading the Baby Doppler instructions here.
Then, head over to our video section to hear what a baby heartbeat sounds like. Getting used to this sound can help you differentiate between the actual heartbeat and other noises when you’re using your own device.

#8 The NEW Ultraline 1000 Monitor
Our new and unique Ultraline 1000 Monitor was made and patented by BabyDoppler. Compared to other models, its design is sleeker and it produces louder heartbeats, making it easy for the whole family to listen in and bond.
Whereas most models come with a 3MHz probe, the Ultraline probe is 2.5MHz, which makes it easier for plus sized women to detect a heartbeat, too.
The simple and advanced mode makes it suitable for both parents-to-be and professionals. Our easy-to-understand user manual explains the advanced features, such as the heart rate curve, and shows you how to operate it within minutes of receiving it.
Of course, as with all our fetal dopplers, the Ultraline comes with a free 60ml sample of sound enhancing gel and batteries.
