predicting gender

Has anyone been able to predict the gender of their baby from its heart rate?  I am 8 weeks and my baby's heart rate was 164bpm, any thoughts?

Heart rate doesnt really count. My whole family and all friends could tell I was having a boy by how high my stomach was sitting. Idk exactly how it works but I think if your tummy sits really high, its a boy. If its lower then its a girl.

Heart beat doesn't determine gender whatsoever. I was positive I was having a boy. Extremely sure. And I'm having a girl.

My sons heart beat went from 143-172 and I'm pregnant with a little girl this time and hers is 143-147 so far and I'm 19+3 so I don't believe the heart beat tells gender..
