Heart beat monitor?

Im a first time mom, currently 4 months preggy. Im enjoying the journey but i get too anxious too quickly during this journey 🫣 So, currently my appointments are scheduled like once a month, and on those weeks that I dont have appointments, I get really anxious about my baby. I keep thinking if a miscarriage might happen, especially when I couldnt feel the movements of the baby yet. Hence, im thinking of getting a heart rate monitor so i can check on my baby anytime my anxiety comes up. Has anyone bought a heart rate monitor before? How is it for you, did it help with reassuring you or its worst cause at times you cant detect the heart beat?? 🙃

Hi! Just an advice.. coming from a highly anxious person.. I personally didn’t buy a fetal monitor as I feel that I will make things worst if I have that monitor and I can’t detect the heart beat haha. I always tell myself, if this baby is meant for me, everything will go smoothly. Always think positive! Happy positive mummy = happy baby! But of course, when something feels really different, I will monitor and head to the emergency care to get myself checked. Otherwise, I just tell myself to enjoy the journey 😀 But if you think a fetal monitor will make you feel more reassured then go ahead and get one! May everything goes smoothly for you and your baby!
