omg.

this has got me kinda thinking.. Lol
I was told by the ultra sound tech i was having a boy.. He said he was sure and if he was wrong he'd refund us our money for all the stuff we had bought.. I trust him because he was right with my first.
Well, i went in for a check up and my Dr. Was listening to the heart beat he said your having a girl right? I said no boy, why?  He said cause the heart beats high but i don't believe in that..
Then the next week i went back for a check up with a nurse,, she was listening to the heart beat and said your having a girl right?
Omg,  now Im scared!!

I see a specialist and was told a babys gender is not predicted by a high or low heartbeat.

My daughter's heart beat was 155 at the beginning but says in between 140-145. Don't worry they said that because it's An old wives tale.

I'm having a girl and her heart beat ranges between low 140s to high 160s. With my first daughter hers was steady at 154. Heartbeat and gender have no connection just like pregnancies all babys are different

My son was in the 160-170 and this one is a girl and anywhere from 143-170 so you can't go off of the heartbeat as boy or girl :).
