My baby's heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

it%26#039;s a myth...statistically it%26#039;s about as good as a coin toss..50/50.

all my babies had around the same heart rate. i have 2 boys 1 girl, and currently pregnant w/a boy.

The heart rate thing is a myth. All babies have varying heart rates so its virtually impossible to tell.

Any experienced ob would agree with me!

I have had 5 babies and I know that the heart rate does NOT mean a thing!

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

There is a belief that the fetal heart rate is different for girls and boys. Many think that girls have a faster heart rate than boys. Rumor has it that if the baby閳ユ獨 heart rate is above 140, it is a girl. If the rate is below 140, it is a sign of a boy.

If the tale stands true for you.............it would be a girl. But this has been known to be wrong!!

Me

Boy always 150s

Girl always 170s

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

its a myth all three of my babys heart rates were always between 155 and 160 ive got 2 girls and a boy

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

well those are all myths, but by pure luck mine came true with both kids. you are likely to have a boy... as the myth would say. quicker heart rate boy.:) but it could be both.

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

The non professional beleif is over 160 it%26#039;s a girl.

My obgyn said that is unfounded.

Congrats, and we all know you will be happy either way it%26#039;s just fun to play the %26quot;what do you think game%26quot;

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

Sounds like a girl to me...the old wives tale is above 140 is a girl below is a boy.....

my boys were all within 140-146 range though...and my daughter (currently pregnant with) is in the same range....

but being that high my guess is still girl!!

Congrats on your pregnancy!

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

You can%26#039;t tell if your having a boy or girl by the babys heart rate....thats just a myth...the babys heart rate goes down a little when the baby is sleeping and when the baby is awake it goes up so you wouldnt be able to tell if the baby is sleeping or awake.

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

an ultrasound can give you the best guess on what you will have. congratulations on your pregnancy

My baby%26#039;s heart rate was 173, am i more then likely to have a girl or boy?

The myth always proved true for me. MY oldest her heart rate was 170 and she was a girl. I 29 weeks pregnant with a little girl her heart rate as been 156 to 173. But I know it%26#039;s just myth but it%26#039;s fun to guess.

it is a myth but it held true for me.

What is the heart rate for a small dog and what is the stable fit temperature of a dog under normal

a dogs heart rate should be between 60-80 beats per minute

the temperture should be between 99.5鎺?to 102.5鎺矲

What is the heart rate for a small dog and what is the stable fit temperature of a dog under normal conditions

HERE YA GO:

1) Body Temperature

Canine %26quot;normal%26quot; body temperature range is 100.5 - 102.5 Fahrenheit (38 - 39.2 Celsius).

A body temperature below 100 or above 103F warrants a call to your veterinarian. Body temperature in dogs is most often measured rectally, ear thermometers can also be used, but it can be difficult to get an accurate reading. Gauging body temperature by the moistness of the nose or how warm the ears feel is not reliable. Click here to learn how to assess your dog%26#039;s body temperature.

2) Respiratory Rate

18-34 breaths per minute

Respiratory rate is the number of breaths per minute. Normal respiratory rates are assessed when the dog is resting. A dog that is in pain, having heart or respiratory problems, suffering from heatstroke, or simply excited will usually have increased respiratory rates. It is important to gauge the overall situation and condition of the animal to assess the respiratory rate.

3) Heart Rate

70-120 beats per minute

Larger dogs have slower rates than small dogs, and dogs that are in good physical shape will have lower heart rates than dogs of similar age and size who are not physically fit. Puppies typically have higher heart rates, up to 180 beats per minute is normal up to one year of age.

4) Duration of Pregnancy

On average, canine pregnancy lasts 63 days, but can vary from 58 to 68 days.

What is the average rate of the heart rate of a 12-13 year old?

A normal resting pulse rate is between

60 - 90 beats per minute.

At the basic level, this topic summary is very good:

The coordinated contraction of the heart is produced because the cells with the fastest rate of depolarisation %26quot;capture%26quot; the rest of the heart muscle cells. These cells with the fastest rate of depolarisation are in the sinoatrial node (SA node), the %26quot;pacemaker%26quot; of the heart, found in the right atrium. As the SA node depolarises, a wave of electrical activity spreads out across the atria to produce atrial contraction. [Fig 1]

Electrical activity then passes through the atrioventricular node (AV node) and through into the ventricles via the Purkinje fibres in the Bundle of His to produce a ventricular contraction. If there is any disease of the conducting system of the heart, then this process may be interfered with and the heart rate altered. If, for example, there is disease of the AV node, then there is an electrical block between the atria and the ventricles. The ventricles will beat with their own inherent rhythm, which is much slower, usually 30-50 beats per minute.

Anaesthetic drugs, like halothane, may depress the rate of depolarisation of the SA node, and the AV node may become the pacemaker of the heart. When this occurs it is frequently termed nodal or junctional rhythm.

This automatic rhythm of the heart can be altered by the autonomic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system supply to the heart leaves the spinal cord at the first four thoracic vertebra, and supplies most of the muscle of the heart. Stimulation via the cardiac beta-1 receptors causes the heart rate to increase and beat more forcefully. The vagus nerve also sup plies the atria, and stimulation causes the heart rate to decrease (bradycardia). Surgical proce dures can cause vagal stimulation and produce severe bradycardia. Examples include pulling on the mesentery of the bowel, anal dilatation or pulling on the external muscles of the eye. Under normal conditions the vagus nerve is the more important influence on the heart. This is especially noticeable in athletes who have slow heart rates.

There are nervous reflexes that effect heart rate. The afferents are nerves in the wall of the atria or aorta that respond to stretch. The aorta contains high pressure receptors. When the blood pressure is high these cause reflex slowing of the heart to reduce the cardiac output and the blood pressure. Similarly, when the blood pressure is low, the heart rate increases, as in shock. Similar pressure receptors are found in the atria. When the atria distend, as in heart failure or overtransfusion, there is a reflex increase in the heart rate to pump the extra blood returning to the heart. When there is a sudden reduction in the pressure in the atria the heart slows. This is called the Bainbridge Reflex and is the cause for the marked bradycardia sometimes seen during spinal anaesthesia. It is best treated by raising the legs to increase the venous return.

Circulatory substances can also affect the heart rate. Catecholamines, like adrenaline, are released during stress, and will cause an increase in heart rate. Drugs are another common cause of change in the heart rate and most anaesthetic drugs can do this. Halothane affects the SA node and will also depress the force of contraction of the heart. Isoflurane, by contrast has little direct affect on the heart, but causes peripheral vasodilation of the blood vessels. This will then decrease the blood pressure, and hence produce a reflex tachycardia as explained above. Ketamine causes stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system, and therefore produces a tachycardia. Other circulating substances may also affect the heart rate, acting indirectly through the autonomic nervous system. For example increased blood concentrations of carbon dioxide will cause stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system and tachycardia, and is an important sign of respiratory failure.

What causes palpatationsin the heart (increased heart rate)?

if you%26#039;re healthy then maybe anxietys, panic attacks, (mostly thinking about it, ive had it all before) if you dont excersice alot, then that could be it, or maybe an eating disorder, it depends what your situation is. try consulting your doctor if it bothers you alot, he%26#039;ll check your blood pressure etc and tell you if you need to excersice or not

How age affect heart rate?

actually the answer above is wrong.. As you get older your heart rate will usually decrease, as it%26#039;s taking more work to pump, if it is increasing then usually the pt is in A Fib, which is an irregular heart beat that can cause an MI.. kinda like its got a short in the wire.. As you get older your heart rate will be affected, excercise and proper diet become much more important.

How age affect heart rate?

as you get older your heartrate tends to increase because your heart is not as strong as it use to be, and also because you are not in as good shape as you use to be.

Quick whats your heart rate right now?

just count it up to 15 secs then multiply it by 4 and theres your beats per min

so whats yours... mine right now is 88 bpm i wonder if thats bad

Quick whats your heart rate right now?
