This is a myth, there is no link between fetal heart rate and the sex. Here is one particular study that proves this:

There is a weak correlation that baby girls have a higher heart rate than baby boys, but it is not concrete, and many babies don't follow this rule.

Fetal Heart rate boy or girl?

The Myth is that if your baby's heart rate is over 140 then it's a girl and if under then it's a boy. That's simply not proven. Just an old wives tale. A study of over 200 women done by the Journal of Reproductive Medicine in 1996 shows no truth to the myth.


What happens during sex?

The behavior by which 2 or more individuals engage in some sort of activity with their genitalia. In humans this involves the act of intercourse, anal sex and/ or oral sex... and hopefully some emotions. Your heart rate increases.


How does the Polar heart rate monitor work?

There are many Polar heart rate monitor models differing in the features that they offer. But typically a Polar monitor comes with a chest strap and a wrist watch. The chest strap is used to measure electrical activities of your heart. You put it around your chest. The wrist watch is used to display your heart rate. Usually within a short time, the watch detects the heart rate signal from the chest strap. You can set heart rate limits on your exercise, so you don't over or under exert yourself. You start the stop watch when you start exercising, and stop the stop watch when you are done. You then review your exercise data (e.g. average heart rate etc) on the wrist watch to see how you did. Depending on the model, it can get a lot more complicated than what I have just described but this is the basic way to use a Polar heart rate monitor.


Is there any correlation between heart rate and an individuals sex or apparent fitness?

Can you tell the sex of a baby by its heartbeat?

No. As the old wives' tale has it, if your unborn baby's heart rate is higher, above 140 beats per minute, that means you're carrying a girl. A lower heart rate below 140 bpm means you're having a boy. It's hard to resist such an easy test, and ever so tempting to over-analyze the pitter patter of that tiny heart. In early pregnancy, the reassuring sound of that heartbeat is just about the only thing we've got to show a baby's even there. But don't get your hopes up, or have your hopes dashed, based on your baby's heart rate, because it has absolutely nothing to do with what your baby has between its legs. This particular old wives' tale was found to be completely false by a medical study 20 years ago. Another medical study in 2006 confirms that fetal heart rate has nothing to do with the baby's sex. Here is more about it. http://www.in-gender.com/Gender-Prediction/Fetal-Heart-Rate.aspx
