Some people say you can determine gender from the heartbeat but I can tell you out of 6 pregnancies that I've had so far it has NOT held true for any of them.  

With my last pregnancy 8 wks 2 days the HB was 181, at 11 wks 1 day it was 171 - I had a boy

With this pregnancy at 9 wks 4 days the HB was 179 and I'm having a girl.
