What has the baby's heartrate been so far? Today it was at 143 and while I know it has no real truth to it (the old wives tale about heartrate and gender), I still just want to know if I still have a chance at having a girl. My anatomy scan is in 3 weeks and I just need to know that I still have hope. lol
Mom to an almost 4 y/o and an almost 2 y/o. In process of growing our family through adoption.
Just saw my midwife today and my little girls' heartrate was in the 140's. She usually ranges from 140's-160's, but I think she was in the 130's at one appt.
We are having a girl. At my first apt around 9 weeks HB was 179 and when I went at 16 weeks it was in 140's. At 20 week ultrasound it was 147 (I think, I was just shocked it was a girl!!). Good luck!
I'm having a boy and it's been about 145-150 every time I went except for the first time when it was about 160.
HR is no indicator.
I know. That's around what DS' heartrate was when I was pregnant with him. But I can still pretend that this OWT has some truth to it. I'm not placing bets on it, this is just for fun.

I've had two girls and now I am pregnant with boy. All three of them had/have the same heart rate range - 140 - 160. There really isn't any truth to that OWT, although I used to believe it up until I found out this is a boy:)
At 6 weeks it was 123, at 10 weeks it was 134, at 20 weeks it was 165, at 25 weeks it was 158 and at 28 weeks it was 140. It will fluctuate based on what you ate, how active you were before they checked it, how active the baby is when they check it, stress you're under, stress the baby is under etc etc etc. So you're right, you really really can't go off the heartbeat.

With both DDs I had/have lower hb range so that is a complete myth. I know it sucks to weight but I think you'll just have to wait and see if there is a turtle or three lines.
Re: those who are having girls
At 14 weeks mine's rate was 150. At 18 weeks it was 143.
I am having a girl and her last heartrate was 143
I'm having a boy and it's been about 145-150 every time I went except for the first time when it was about 160.

I don't know what I am having yet, but the heartrate has been all over the place.
6 weeks 121
10 weeks 179

High... About 169 when I was 13 weeks...
throughout my pregnancy so far my girl's heartrate has been 139-145 and so it is very possible that u r having a girl. hope i helped u out.
At 17 weeks my LO's heartrate was in the 140's. I had a doctor's visit last week and her hb was 158. I wouldn't worry about the old wives tale.
Her's has been in the upper 130's, but with that being said DS's ran the same!
