I wouldn't worry. I had a few occasions where I couldn't find it and then it would turn up in a different spot a couple of days later so I would guess it just means the baby has moved. Have you tried it slowly all over or were you just going for the same spot you found it before?

Dont panic.
How are you trying to find it with the doppler? I found the best position was to lay flat on my back and then lift your knees up so your feet are touching your bum.

don't panic, keep trying, at 15weeks the baby is so tiny and hard to find if it goes into a little corner...i had this problem and would spend ages hunting for the hb, but sam would come along and find it no probs hiding in a far corner

Glad you found the hb again. I hate that feeling when you can't find it - even though you know its just because the baby has moved
