Heart rate/gender myth

[*Efjay*]

Hey with the chinesse luna one. It says mothers age at conception. Now we conceived in July & my birthday is in July so do I go by 29 even though I would have been 30 a week later?

So what is the myth exactly, girls HR are higher and boys lower....but what are the approx numbers? This bub seems to be in between...maybe its a hermaphrodyte....LOL. It's heart rates have been 146bpm @ 7wks, 157 @ 18wks and 159 @ 29wks. Though 18wk U/S said boy, I still have it in my head that there's a chance it's a girl! Maybe just wishful thinking!

I have read above 150bpm is supposed to be a girl lower is a boy

[skybie]

the girls were 155 and 162, bimby was 164

I had heard 140 was the magic number. Either way my Hatchlet's very confused. I've had two scans. One measured about 136 and the next 158. The ring test - it went in a circle. Then side to side. Then in a circle. Both scans so far have revealed only one baby.

Love the new avvy MrsS!

ETA: Just tried the chinese lunar one & it said....... GIRL!

chinese lunar says boy for me but obviously they dont take twins into account but it was right about DD1 and DD2 i couldnt find on that i can use for DS as they all start at age 18

From what I have read it is below 140 is a boy and above that is a girl. Both my boys had heart rates above 150 though, so didn't work for me. Maybe mine are opposite? My current bub had a HR of 139 this morning.

Efjay, the chinese thing is nonsense too, DS2 should have been a girl according to that theory. It also says that every baby concieved by a 30yo woman in the 2nd half of the year will be a boy????? I would go with 29 if you are sure that you were still 29 when you concieved.

I just had it proved that it's different for everyone lol

My DS and my first angel who I truly believe was a boy had heartrates of 180 and over...

This one looks like it's a girl, and her heartrate was 156 at 9wks, and was 139bpm yesterday at 19wks 2d.


As for the chinese theory - DS should have been a girl according to that, and this time I should be having a boy lol

My son's HB at 12 weeks was 161.

This baby's HB at 12 weeks was 158... gender TBC.
