Bebe Sounds Be005 - Manual (Page 8)

You will notice that the sounds you hear through the Prenatal Heart
Listener
® are different from those you hear at your doctor's offi ce. This
is because your doctor probably uses Doppler ultrasound equipment
which creates electronic noise based on movement. The Prenatal
Listener
® , however, is designed to amplify the sounds naturally by using
the absolutely safe Bell stethoscope method of amplifi cation. Again,
the heartbeat heard through the Prenatal Listener
® sounds more like the
soft, rapid beating of a drum, while the Doppler sound is more of a
gushing noise. Please keep in mind that it will take a little practice to
pick up this faint sound so listen very carefully.
With our recording cable and your own recorder you can record your
baby's sounds. We also encourage you to record your own heartbeat
prior to your baby being born. You will then be able to play it back to
your newborn after birth which may have a calming and soothing effect.
