Anyone Know the Saying About the heart rate?

i have heard that girls have a faster heartrate. i heard that a girl is over 160 and a boy is under. i just came from my 12 week ultrascreen and she said the HB was 164. we are staying team green so we wont find out but im curious.

anyone have any experience with the Heart Rate? has it held true for the BTDT moms? or for the girls who have found out the gender? over 160=girl, under 160=boy?

I heard over 140 is girl. Under is boy.
With DD her heart rate was always in the high 150s to low 160s

I'm not pregnant...but i was just reading about this yesterday. I read that its just an old wives tale that the heart rate has more to do with where the baby is in development. One of my friends said both of her boys had heart rates around 170

It's really an old wives tale. This chart shows how it doesn't seem to make much sense:

The HBs are all over the place for all the babies in this study.

It was right for me. My Chat Icon is always above 140. If anything, I don't think you can go by anything before 12-14 weeks because they're all usually faster then. In the end, I agree that's in an oldwive's tale though.

I heard slower for boys and faster for girls - my nurse thinks I am having a boy based off the heartrate.
However - just from watching 16 & prego Chat Icon It hasn't been true for the girls on there - the slow heartbeat were was a girl on one episode

My little Chat Icon had a heartbeat between 150-160 up until 24 weeks.
