Just wondering if the old wives tale was true for many of you? They say anything under 140 is a boy and anything over 140 is a girl, was/is that right for you?
-
Hers was always right around 140 but sometimes as low as 127, and she is a girl!
-
With my first pregnancy it was correct.
This pregnancy, the heartbeat started at 158 and now hovered around 138 (sometimes jumps to 150) and I'm having another girl. -
for both my pregnancies the heartbeat was above 150 and i had a girl and am now having a boy!
-
Between 150 and 160 - had a boy
-
Same as @Alivoo01: between 150 and 160 and was a boy!
-
All of the wives tales were wrong for me! Heartrate was always really high (like 170 the first ultrasound, 165 the second, and 163 at anatomy), but it's a boy!
-
High both times. 2 girls!
-
My daughter was consistently in the 130s.
-
Always was between 142-152 and I had a boy
-
High 140's for both, and both are girls
-
At my 8wk scan the HB was 180, but all the rest were between 135-145, and I have a boy
-
Had one higher & one lower, both girls!
-
So far both of my girls had higher heart rates, if that is any indicator we would be having another girl this time so we will see.
-
Almost always over 150, and it's a boy.
-
Wrong for us! His HR bounced around both sides
-
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!
-
It was right for us! 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.
-
Average to high and he was a boy
-
DS: always under 140
DD: always above 140
DD2: always above 140 -
Nope - DS1 was usually over 150 and DS2 has ranges from 130s to 150s.
-
It started high and steadily dropped, and is now hovering around 140 or a little over. If it keeps dropping, it won't be accurate anymore, but for now that's roughly correct, because she's a girl!
-
Wrong for us! He was always around 150!
-
First heartrate was 174 and afterwards it was between 140-150 consistently. I had a boy.
-
DD's heart rate early on was always 155+. Since 30 weeks or so it's been around 135 but apparently it is normal for it to slow down as you approach birth.
-
I didn't vote! 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!
