A fetal phonocardiogram system featuring an array of acoustic sensors designed to be temporarily affixed to a pregnant patient to convert the vibrations associated with a fetal heartbeat and/or fetal movement into a signal. The signal can be amplified and transferred to a processing element for filtering non-fetal sounds in order to resolve the fetal heartbeat. The filtered signal can be used in conjunction with an array of multiple acoustic sensors to locate a fetal position relative to the array.
