hey girls sorry i havent been in for while, OH is off work so been spending lots time with him
i got my doppler yesterday and found baby no probs i now cant put it down, got a lovely 152bpm last night so was very chuffed everything seems to be healthy with bubs

i can defo feel baby moving now lots so thats also reassuring.

glad everyones scans went well only 5 more weeks till my 20 weeks scan and finding out what bubs is OH swears its a boy but thats coz he wants one im sure but i got feeling about boy also

girls is there any truth in the heartbeat sounds for boy and girl, like boy sounding like a galloping horse and girl sounding different to that?? just curious coz we have galloping horse

 

[tinybutterfly]

^^ there's truth in the heartbeat thing (but it has to do with how frequent it is) but not this early on, in the later stages yes, boys then have a slower hb than girls. but by then obviously you already know the gender for a long time.

i don't know the cut-off scores, but it's under 140 boy, over 140 girl (might be 150 too), but yeah, not this early. but hey...on the bright side, you have a 50-50 shot that you're right hahaha

Boys sound like a train and girls sound like a gallopping horse! Well that's how the story goes anyway although I know people who have had the opposite sounds for each gender! X x

Mine sounds like both at times - it varies day by day.

My consultant said that the only time girls have a faster heartbeat is in labour - other than that they are all the same - varying between 140 and 170

Do you have a gender scan or do you have to wait for your 20 weeks one?

I asked my sister (as some of you might recall, she's a doctor) about this. She says the sound of the heartbeat will differ depending on what part of the heart the doppler is picking up (aorta vs. ventricle).

My LOs heartbeat varies from one time to the next between a horse and a train, even as I move around the probe, so this makes sense. Which is good, because otherwise I have a hermaphrodite.

 

[Beadette]

LMAO @ Annie!! Yes mine mainly sounds like a train but occassionally switches to a horse when I move it around so that makes sense xxx

 

[EpdTTC]

Too funny Annie!

[SmileyShazza]

Back from holiday – have missed 10 days of chatter so am sorry if it takes me a while to catch up with you all again. Am not going to read all the way back as I’ll be here all day Have had a quick scoot through to get an idea of what’s been going on.

Good to see so many great scans taken place in the past week or so

VickyD – I have my 20 week scan tomorrow and I am feeling really scared and anxious too. I just want to know if all is well with our little bubs now – today can’t go quickly enough for me!

 

[tinybutterfly]
