What is your baby's heart rate and is it a boy or girl?

HeatherB252

Soo Im 15 weeks today and haven't heard anything on when my ultrasound will be so i am so excited to find out if its a boy or a girl with DS we didn't find out so this time we definitely want to know so i heard high heart rate for girl and lower for boy so i just wanted to see if that was true and would like to see what everyone else is having and their little ones heart rate thanks

we were never told HR. we were just told it was fast and healthy.

To be quite honest, our doctors and technicians dont tell us much when it is normal.

Ours has always been fast, so we'll see.  BTW, they've done a lot of studies on this and the results are inconclusive.

MrsG.060708

DD's heartrate was always in the 140s.

This baby, also a girl, has ranged from 130-165 bpm.

My son's was always in the 170's... This baby girl is 140-150. OWT is opposite for me

The OWT has been proven conclusively false.

However, even if it were true, you have to wait until later in pg to apply the tale.  All babies have really high heat rates in early pregnancy and it beings to slow down when the second trimester starts.

FWIW, LO's heart rate was 160 at the a/s (19w).  So it was right for me.

I am having a girl and it was 156 at 14 wks and only 129 at 19 wks (but i think she was sleeping during that ultrasound).

No truth in it at all.  We are having a boy and his HR is always about 165.

jenafr

I'm 15 weeks, and we found out at our 3D ultrasound we're having a boy!  His heartrate was in the mid-150s.  Had an appointment today and it was 146. 

Jen&Peter

At last week's ultrasound (29 weeks), baby's heartrate was 132 and it's a boy

tonychelle

Last time, it was 148, and it's a girl. It's been as high as 170-ish in the beginning.

varkeyr

I heard the same thing 140+ girl lower for a boy. Problem is it isn't always true.

You should have an ultrasound about 18 - 20 weeks

uberbitter

I had an appointment today and his heartbeat was 150.

caffinated_tulip

I'm having a boy and his heart rate was in the 160 range all the way through.

PSUBean22

162 and he's a boy!

lindylogana

Having a boy his heartrate is in the 140's-150's

When I was pregnant with DD her heartrate was always in the 170's/180's

brokensmyl

At each appointment it was always at least 150 or more. On my at home doppler, it never dropped below 150. Then at week 20 when we went in for our a/s, it was 130 and our LO was confirmed boy.

mabst196

In the 150s and its a boy. DD's was higher like 165-170.

I'm having boy/girl twins. 

My boy HB: 140's 

My girl HB: 150-165

BabyBLove

9 wks - 175

11w6d - 155

19w - 136

24w - high 130's

 

While ours proves true for boy in the later weeks, I heard there is absolutely NO truth to the heartbeat OWT! Babies heart rates always decrease some as they get bigger!

erin_aaronsbaby

DS1: upper 130s - upper 140s

DS2: upper 140s - upper 160s

Bananappeal145

Our little girl's heart rate was very high at first, something like 176. It has kept going down at each appt (normal) and yesterday when we found out she is a girl (SQUEE!) her HR was 138. OWT held true for us. Good luck

chrystlporter

How do you get the tickers in the posts? This is making me mad!

scarlettoctober

I'm having a boy, and his HR has ranged from 147 bpm to 153 bpm.

melissae79

I am having a boy and his heart rate was 147. I am 16 weeks. I've heard boys were lower..under 150 and girls were higher. My older sons heartbeat always jumped up when they messed with him so his always was high as if he was a girl. This lil guy doesn't seem to be affected as much when the monitor him.

Zombie thread, ladies

chevronseven

That is typically the way it goes, but my husband and his brother both had high heart rates and obviously ended up being boys!  Mine is 154 and it is a boy :-)

jasrun80

my boy was always 165 then my girls was 140s. this one is 140s-150s,,, girl!

clehorn

We're having two boys and one is usually mid 150's and the other mid 140's. That was at our 20 week checkup.

Mrs_D_in_KY

OWT were wrong for us, with DS #1 and now this little guy both had consistently high heart rates. Both times the OB said girl because of the high heart rate, and both times they were wrong. Lol
