I wouldn't say it's official yet...my daughter was under 140 at that far along but it shot up at the next appointment so it could still go up

No it's not true all babies are different. My middle daughter always had a rate in the 120s & this one is a boy & his started out at 155 & now stays in the 140s.

My son's heartbeat is always around 156, it has never been below 150. I think it just depends on the baby, not the gender.
