I don't trust my intuition anymore haha. My first pregnancy I just KNEW she was a girl and than this pregnancy I was sure it was a boy and it ended up being a girl. I even had dreams that it was a boy... but as I got closer to the ultrasound I started having dreams where they said "its a girl"... I think my body was preparing myself so that I wouldn't cry when I found out.

Both my boys had heartrates anywheres btw 140-180! So, I would say not true! The chinese calendar was right both times though! Lol

Congrats on your pregnancy!

Both are old wives tales. Heartbeat fluctuate based on what the baby is doing. For instance if the baby is moving around and awake the heart rate tends to be a little higher whereas if it is sleeping or lounging around its a little lower. I have a doppler and listen to my daughters heart rate every once in a while and it is always all over the place. As for the chinese calender. Both pregnancies it said boy and it was wrong both times. There are people that swear on it but realistically its just something fun to do. Congrats on your pregnancy I hope you get the boy you want! :)
