baby update
well drew and I had an ultrasound at the dr.'s office today to check and see if the placenta "moved up" since the 20 week ultrasound when it was low and she pretty much said she isnt sure. she thinks it is all out of the way, but there is one area that could still be covering the cervix (make a vaginal delievery risky and a c section a must) so we have to go next wednesday back to the official ultrasound place where they can use color flow doppler to see if there is blood flow going through that area (meaning it is a part of the placenta) so i'll keep you updated! Baby's HR was 147 today and everything else is A-OK!

147 huh?
GIRL!
Really, in my experience, there's no correlation between heart rate and gender, although many swear it's true.
Hope your placenta behaves itself! :)
Yeah, I really don't think it's true. I know, I remember everyone acting like they had a RIGHT to know when I was pregnant! Good for you for sticking with the surprise :)
Here's a study...
Sonographic Correlation of Fetal Heart Rate and Gender
Terry J. DuBose, BBA, AS, RDMS
Austin Radiological Association, Bailey Square Medical/Surgical Building, 1111 W. 34th Street, Suite 102, Austin, TX 78705.
Linda Porter, RDMS
Denise Dickey, RDMS
Larry W. Hill, MD
Chris M. Butschek, MD

Austin Radiological Association, Austin, Texas.
This study sonographically evaluates the fetal heart rate throughout gestation and the baby's sex at birth to determine if the fetal heart rate is an indicator of the baby's sex. The results of the evaluation of 365 cases indicates that the fetal heart rate is not an accurate indicator of fetal sex.
