Your Babies Heart Rate Posted: 03-20-04 18:27pm
When I was pregnant with my first I got to
talking with my midwife and she told me
that your babies heart rate can normally
be a good indicater of what sex it is.
Under 165 bpm = girl
over 165 bpm = boy
both my girls heart rates were high 150's,
my friends son nicholas clocked in at 190
bpm, my other friends children were 157
bpm (hollie)
and her second baby was 170 (bailey- boy)
my friend melissa, preggo with twins,
their heart rates are 156 and 187 at her
last scan, and she decided to find out the
sex, you guessed it, one of
each...................
How accurate is this statement to u
guys..... 4 those who have had their
babies, and 4 those who are pregnant but
know the sex?????

I dont think that they are that accurate.
It really dont make sense to me how they
could be just because of the sex. I
always thought a low heart rate was a boy
and a high one was a girl?? Im having a
boy and he goes anywhere from 120-150. I
dont remember with the other kids!

Yeah jill lower heart rates are supposed
rto be boys....Joshuas is always in the
upper 120's to mid 130's.
n I forgot to write down after 28 weeks
lol I found out at 19 weeks he was a boy..
So that statement was true for me

Yeah at 10 weeks josh's was way up in the
160's and the ultrasound lady told me
about that.....But josh's heartbeat always
goes up during an ultrasound.....I dont
think he likes it! Lol.....And maybe
while they r smaller their heartbeats are
faster.....I dunno. But I know his
heartbeat rises during a contraction and
during an ultrasound......

Their heartbeat is faster when they r more
active slower when they are "resting"

Eh I dont think the statement is true
really at all. . I know plenty of people
whove had high heartrates and had boys and
lower ones and had girls.. .But I guess
statistically it is more common for boys
to be lower and girls be higher and it
worked for me..My baby so far has been
anywhere from 136-147 around there and
mines a boy, and my mom said with us girls
it was always in at least the 150's and w/
my brother it was in the 140's.. But u
never know, I wouldnt judge the sex by it
for sure.

Heart rates are faster when they are
smaller. The bigger they get and closer
to birth the heartrate slows
significantly.
