Can Baby's Heartrate Predict the Sex? Posted: 12-21-05 08:09am
Ok ladies. Based on present or past
experience, can the baby's heart rate
predict what the sex will be?? And, if
you have caffeine ( I know it's a no no,
but it was fresh brewed ice tea and it
tasted soooo refreshing! ) an hour or two
before the appt. Cause the baby's heart
rate to go up? Let me know!!!

I have read that it is an old wives tale.
I was also told by my ob not to count on
it, but it could be true. I am definately
hoping it is true because my baby's heart
rate was 159. That is supposed to be girl
tendencies. I would love a girl! I hope
it is true. What is your baby's h/r?

at my last u/s 8 weeks, the heart rate was
160. I did have caffeine about an hour or
so before my appt. So i'm not sure if
that had any effect on it. I already have
2 girls so i'm hoping for a boy!!

I had an ultrasound this week at 6 weeks
and my baby's heartbeat was only 120. Is
that not good or not normal?

I think a heart rate between 120 and 180
is normal. You have to realize that your
baby's heart just started beating so it's
getting used to beating. It gets faster
in a few weeks then it slows down again as
he/she gets bigger.
