Heart Rate & Gender

How many of you had accurate predictions of gender with regard to fetal heart rate?  At 7 weeks, my baby's heart rate was 180's, and has since been consistently 160's, which points to girl! First week of December is our "big" ultrasound. I'm currently 16+1.

My baby's heart rate always measured around 153-158 and we just found out she's a girl! I don't know if heart rate and gender are really correlated but it worked for me

At my 8 wk apt, my son's heart rate was at 169 and at his 18+3 wk ultrasound it was at 146.  There is no truth to heart rate and gender..

the heart rate for this baby is the same as what my son's was for or atleast very close to it. but I don't know what i'm having.  I did read an article though that the heart rate gender prediction is not actually true.  it was an interesting article.  if only i could find it again for you

I didn't guess on heart rate as my doppler didn't have digital display.  I guessed on the sound boys sound like a train and girls like a galloping horse. Mine sounded like a train and he is a boy due in jan

My LO's heart rate was 140 at 20 weeks and it's a girl. Apparently the old wives tales was not accurate in my case.

My baby boy has always had a high heart rate my doctor says he has the heart rate of a girl but obliviously that doesn't always tell you because he is definitely a boy.
