Saw my bean!! Pic added

[AtLeast]

I had an ultrasound, I'm 9 wks today. I'll get a pic of it up in a minute. HB was 169. Any guesses on gender based on that? I have to go back and look at my old u/s's from my other kids and compare. I'd love to hear your guesses!

I don't know that the HB guesstimate works until third trimester. The theory is that smaller things have faster heart beats, so all babies in first and second trimester have really high heart beats. In the third trimester, if its high, it's a girl, if its low, it's a boy, maybe because girls are smaller than boys. My DDs was always around 158-168.

And that's awesome about the ultrasound! Risk of MC goes WAY down!

soon as you get a pic up I may be able to guess gender.
you know what your ph was at time of conception?
are you sick?
based only off HB sounds like a Girl.
