Boy Or Girl?

Hi I went to the doctors today and the
lady checked to see if she could hear the
heartbeat. I am nine weeks pregnant and
we heard it loud and strong. I told my
mother this and she said that since I
heard it so early that I am going to have
a girl. But I was thinking that since
there is new technology today that the
heart beat can be heard earlier now than
it could back then. Has anyone else
heard it early and is it common? Or is
my mother right??

Not necessarily. I had my first
ultrasound when I was 9 weeks and 6 days.
I heard the heart beat also. But i'm
having a boy. I think your theory about
technology is right.

Chinese Birth Chart

Jackie-
have you ever heard of the chinese birth
chart. If you go to google and search
chinese birth chart, you can actually find
out what your having just by calculating
the day and age you conceived. I tried it
with all my friends as well as myself and
so far it has come out to be true. You
should try it. For fun at least.

I checked out the chinese birth chart a
while ago and it said I am having a boy.
But I know its not 100% positive either as
it says on the web site that it is
strictly for entertainment purposes. I
just read a few posts from other people
and the said that at 10 weeks it is too
early to hear the heartbeat. Oh well, as
long as its a healthy baby I don't mind
what it is ....

The doctor I saw for my first pregnancy
always said during every visit that I was
having a girl by the sound and speed of
the heartbeat. I don't see that doctor
anymore, not because of that but for other
important reasons, but just to end the
story, I had a boy.

Heartbeat

I have never heard that theroy
before....However I have heard that if the
baby has a higher heartbeat like above 150
that it isverypossible that you will be
having a girl andif its lower it may be a
boy....Mytheroy is also supported because
research has shown that boys normally have
lower heart rates and girls normaly have
hgher ones

I did not ask my doctor my baby's heart
rate but I will next visit. I know these
old wives tells are not very accurate but
they are fun just to see if they will be
the truth with your own pregnancy. With
my last I took a test on childbirth.Org
called "boy or girl". Its a test with
about 20 or so old wives tales and it told
me I was having a girl and I did. This
pregnancy it said I have a 89% chance of
having a boy and 21% chance of having a
girl. I hope it will be right this time
also. I took it more than three times
just to make sure it would way the same
thing. It has a question about the
baby's heart rate but like I said I did
not know my baby's. I'll try again on
tuesday to add that part to the test.
You should try it.

If you go to yahoo.Com and search for baby
sex predictors you might find a height
predictor. It may not be right and you
may not care but some might. I thought it
was funny.
