Strong healthy heartbeat spinning!!
I know! i'm hoping it means something! i know its a myth but my DD was fast and my boys were low!
My doctor said he thinks there is some truth to it. My boys' hearts were both at 165 or so. This baby was 180. He said I think it's a girl after he listened. I really hope its truthful but then again my boys' were so high for me I don't want to read to much into it. Maybe my girl would have a lower rate. :-( hmmm
I bet yours is a girl though if it's following the same pattern!
it's early and I know its faster earlier right? who knows. I do remember my Mw last time heard it , it was 170 at some point and she was like its a girl! totally worth all the sickness! LOL (because I was super sick and whining)
Your midwife just knew and she will say the same this time!
I never had an early scan with either boy so I don't know if there heart rates changed at all but with this baby the arly scan at 8 weeks put the heart rate at 180 and it was still 180 at the 12 week visit.
I have my first appt tonight at 7pm est. The doc will listen to the heartbeat and possibly do a pap. I really hope not though. The last 2 times I've had them at my 12 week check up I bled so bad when they swept my cervix. Reall not looking forward to it. I'm going to be her to leave me alone...hahaha.
Good luck at your appt Three! Maybe if you ask you can have the pap at a later date? Or she could be more gentle?? Hope the heartbeat is fast and strong!
I didn't have an early one with DS2 either. I do remember we heard the heartbeat via doppler super early , like 7 weeks maybe? but he did come 2 weeks early and my due date was off so he prob was closer to 8-9 weeks, anyway, his was not nearly that fast, I think prob 140s.
My first with this one was at 7 weeks and it was 138 but they said for that early that was pretty fast and it will get faster. I had an early one with DS1 but gosh I don't remember at all what his was. my memory sucks.. lol.. my poor kids.
Yikes can't believe I am 16 weeks pregnant! Almost halfway there!
Anyone else having issues with food tasting off? It seems half of what I eat tastes funny. Eggs taste especially funny and the other day my bowl of honey nut cheerios tasted like formeldahyde. What the heck??! I am used to this during early pregnancy but it's never last this long and for this many food items. It drives me crazy!
Everything tastes too salty to me. I had to throw out my dinner the other night and DH thought I was crazy!!
