We are excited to be able to offer the Aqua Dopplex Plus from Huntleigh--now available for rent.  This waterproof doppler gives added ease and peace-of-mind for clients and providers who are planning a water birth.

2MHz probe and 6 foot cord are both waterproof.  Amplification unit remains out of the water for clear auscultation of the baby's heart rate.  Comes with carrying case, gel, battery, neck string, and instruction booklet. 

• Size: 5.5" x 2.9" x 1.1"
• Power Source: 9V battery (alkaline recommended)

• Auto shut-off after 5 min. of continuous operation or one minute after  receipt of last signal

There are so many wonderful benefits to being able to labor and/or birth in a soothing pool of warm water. Additionally, using a tub that is designed for birth has distinct advantages over using kiddie pools.

I sincerely hope you enjoy learning more about waterbirth from this site and that this service will be one that will enhance our community.
