What is the old wives tale?



I think if the heart rate is below 140 then it's a boy and above 140 is a girl...

I could be wrong about the exact number though

They were true for me so far...

Both boys were in the 130's. This one, I'm too early to tell yet.

At 9 weeks the heart rate was 164.

I am having a Chat Icon

After that I haven't been given an actual number, I have only been told that it's "normal".
