I am having a boy, he has hear rate of 149 now. So I guess it's just a tale.

Well I've had 3 girls and yes all of their heart rates stayed high like 160 to 170... I'm currently prego with my first son, finally lol.... I'm 37 wks exactly today... He's heart rate has been between 140 and 150 my whole pregnancy... So idk if the wives tale is true or not :) Good luck to you ladies!

Good to know. Thank you! I've been having a feeling since I found we are having a girl so just wondering how true it is.

Pretty sure it's an ol wives tale. 149 is right where it should be :-) that being said, my little girl was 149 at the first appt and had stayed around there the entire time
