DS heartbeat was always around 145 (from very first time we heard it until I pushed him out!) So I feel like that is too close to call!

Since 30 weeks or so it's been around 135 but apparently it is normal for it to slow down as you approach birth.

If it keeps dropping, it won't be accurate anymore, but for now that's roughly correct, because she's a girl!

It is what tipped me off that I had one of each in there- DS had a lower heart rate, DD was higher, and it stayed that way the whole pregnancy. wonderstruck on "What was your baby's heart rate and what was the gender?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-babys-heart-rate-and-what-was-the-gender#post-1619183 Wed, 07 May 2014 12:50:07 +0000 wonderstruck 1619183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Both of my boys had very high heart rates - and what's more, heart rate varies a ton based on the position, how active baby is that moment, etc. Old wives tale with no truth to it!
