25 weekers - can your OH hear the baby's heartbeat from listening to your belly??

Apparently on my 25 week weekly update, it says that by now if someone pushes their ear to your tummy, they should hear baby's heart.

Hubby tried last night but no luck. How about anyone else?

Yes mine did, but my Doppler helped it had a good clear sound of the h/b which helped the OH to know exactly where to put his ear.

My preggo book says to get an empty kitchen roll tube and get him to listen through that and he will hear it. x

DH tried but he got kicked in the ear one too many times

He said he couldn't hear it and I tried with a stethoscope and couldn't hear it but doppler was loud and clear.
