If the fetal heart rate is higher than 150, is it definitely a girl?

The fetal heartbeat of the fetus is taken very seriously. In the eyes of many people, the gender of the baby can be determined based on the fetal heartbeat. I believe that pregnant mothers are also quite curious. So, if the fetal heartbeat is 150 in three months, is it a girl? Let’s take a closer look at this issue.

The fetus' heart rate is 150 at three months old, is it a girl?

At present, it is impossible to simply determine the gender of the fetus based on the fetal heartbeat, but it is possible to determine whether the fetus is healthy.

The normal heart rate of a fetus is between 110 beats/minute and 160 beats/minute. If the fetal heart rate is <110/minute or >160 beats/minute for more than 10 minutes, it means that the fetal heart rate is abnormal. The use of fetal heart rate monitors has become quite popular. During fetal heart rate monitoring, if an abnormality is found in the fetal heart rate graph, it is often used to indicate fetal heart rate abnormalities. In most cases, abnormal fetal heartbeat means that the fetus is short of oxygen in the uterine cavity. The more severe the abnormal fetal heartbeat, the more severe the fetal intrauterine hypoxia. However, not all fetal heartbeat abnormalities are caused by lack of oxygen. In addition to the above-mentioned situations, the condition of the pregnant woman herself also affects the changes in the fetal heartbeat. For example, if the pregnant woman has a fever, the fetal heartbeat will often exceed 160 beats/minute. If the pregnant woman has a relatively hyperactive thyroid hormone, her own heartbeat is rapid, and the fetal heartbeat also often exceeds 160 beats/minute. If the pregnant woman takes some therapeutic drugs, such as salbutamol taken for premature babies, or atropine, it can cause the heart rate of the mother and child to increase.

The fetal heart rate is regulated by the central nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system. The monitoring graph generated by recording the changes in the fetal heartbeat in an instant through data signals can be used to understand the response of fetal movement, uterine contraction and fetal heartbeat to infer whether the fetus in the uterine cavity is suffering from oxygen deficiency. In a normal pregnancy, fetal heart rate monitoring should be performed once a week starting from the 37th week of pregnancy. If there are complications or symptoms, it can be performed from the 28th to 30th week of pregnancy. Attention should be paid to whether the regularity of the fetal heart rate is sometimes fast and sometimes slow. The normal fetal heart rate is 110-160 beats/minute. If the fetal heart rate is above 160 beats/minute or continuously exceeds 100 beats/minute, it means that the fetus is suffering from intrauterine hypoxia.
