**Warning** over home-use fetal heart monitors

Please PLEASE don’t use these kinds of apps, or ‘home use’ fetal heart monitors.

They are neither safe nor accurate, and I have sadly seen too many cases where they have been used in substitute for getting checked by a professional, and it has been tragically too late  

If you have concerns about your babies movements or wellbeing, please contact your maternity service provider and get checked over without delay. Never wait until the next day to call up, report any changes to your baby’s pattern of movements to your maternity provider.
