Sounds really stupid but whatā€™s the point of Ewan The Sheep exactly? Do I need him as well as a white noise machine? It doesnā€™t look soothing to me šŸ¤£ for the sake of the fact heā€™s a fiver on Vinted I will but yeah

Thanks ladies!

@Laughalong Iā€™ve got the dream sheep but I donā€™t think youā€™d need one if you have a white noise machine too. I think thereā€™s lots of different options these days whereas a few years ago Ewan was alone out there šŸ˜‚ we only went with him because he matches the nursery theme

Itā€™s just a white noise machine, my little girl loved her Ewan but then we switched to a different white noise machine that could be plugged in because it was getting on my tits having to keep changing the batteries in him

With my first we got gifted the fisher price soothe n snuggle otter which played like white noise but also little bits of music and had the breathing and a little light, he was OBSESSED with it to the point where it's his comforter now, we just took the big battery part out cos he doesn't need it šŸ˜‚ I preferred it to Ewan myself

I had one with both my kids and found it reassuring but was able to find the heartbeat quite easily from about 8/9 weeks after I found it the first time. I think it depends on whether you think it will stress you out if you canā€™t find it though x

My cousin is a midwife and shared a Tommyā€™s post about them yesterday - theyā€™re not a good idea. If you just want it for a bit of fun then probably go ahead but itā€™s so important not to rely on it to check baby is okay xx

I have one and love it. I donā€™t use it regularly, just when bored and I think of it. I put it in the exact point my midwife did at 16 weeks when she listened and we pretty much find it straight away everytime. I just listen to it, go ā€œaw, cuteā€ and put it back in the draw. Similarly if I canā€™t find it (which hasnā€™t happened yet), Iā€™d just put it back and not care. I think it just depends on knowing your personality and self. If you know youā€™ll be wanting to use it for re-assurance, avoid. If youā€™re doing it as a gimmick like me, itā€™s fine.
