Ever been right?

Today was my 14w check and just listened to the baby's HR. Which was like 140, I have had 4 girls and their HR was always fast! That old wives tale about the babies HR can determine the sex, has that ever been true for anyone?

This exactly.

It was true for me (but you can never fully trust those crazy wives takes). The HB was always around 140ish at each appointment and it ended up being a boy!

It is probably right about 50% of the time.

Both my boys stayed around the 140 mark. With this LO the HR has been in the 160's so I'm hoping for a girl. I'm going to go insane waiting for my 20 week U/S. Lol. I hope you get your boy!

Ugh we want a boy

Baby has been upwards of 150 at every check up... even up to 180 once, and I found out Im having a boy.

It was true for me. The other old wives tale that was true for me was amount of heartburn = amount hair on the baby.

My DD was always 150s and 160s.

I hate multiple ultrasounds with both children and their heart rates were all
across the board. From 130s up to 178ish. It depends on how active they are being at the time.

Unfortunately all babies heart rates are different, regardless of gender. I measure roughly 8-10 different babies heart rates every day and they are always across the board. I do hope you get your little boy though!!
