My doc told me at my last appt that the heart rate was a old wives tale. I said really? He said well they're right 50% of the time.

I think you're having a fourth boy too, though, my two boys were in the 140s always. This baby has only been measured heart rate once and was in the 159/160 zone. We won't know sex until birth (early March, probably).

Hope you get your girl!

both of my boys were in the 160s. This baby is 177 as of yesterday! It will be interesting to see what everyone says

Oh and maybe everyone could share what their children were at and what gender they turned out to be!

My LO has been in 160s early and more recently 150s. I'm 31 weeks and Team Green so we will find out in December. Multiple doctors have told me it sounds like a girl

DD was in 160s and 150s too so ... This pregnancy has been completely different than w/ DD so it will be interesting to see if the heartbeat tail holds true for us

All 3 of my boys were in the 160s and 170s, so for me, the wives tale is not accurate. I really hope you get your girl though!!

so what is the wives tale? the lower the heart rate then its a girl the higher means boy?

Opposite: higher hb is girl and lower is boy

Ergh. I will be going to a pregnancy resource center in about 6-7 weeks as they give free ultrasounds. I will find out what we are having then!

I have to be honest. My "mommy" feelings are saying boy.
