Girl or Boy?

I went to the dr yesterday.
BF3 (Baby Furry 3) has a heart rate of 152 at the highest.

What I found on internet:
To conduct the this old wives take you simply take your baby's heartrate in beats per minute (bpm) using a doppler or fetoscope and look at the chart:
Over 140 = girl
Under 140 = boy

As you know, we are NOT finding out. So wive's tales will have to do for us!

Hey Lorraine, Amelia had the lowest heartbeat of all three when in the womb. Alex the highest. So, for us that old wives tale was FALSE!! LOL. I have a book I'll have to find for you... has a whole bunch of old wives tales in it.

The wives tale worked for us, but Ally's was in the 160s-170s, Liam's was in the 140s-150s, and Maia's was in the 160s as well....so girls were higher!!

My b/g twins held true to the old wive's tales with their heartbeats the entire pregnancy...
