Fun Ways To Determine An Unborn Baby’s Gender

Acne

Acne and other skin problems are a common symptom of a pregnancy due to an imbalance of hormones. In early pregnancy especially, a woman’s pregnancy symptoms may be similar to her premenstrual symptoms, which often include acne or skin problems. While there is no scientific evidence to back this up, an old wives tale claims that a woman who is pregnant with a girl will develop pimples because the baby steals the mother’s beauty. Acne and other skin conditions usually go away after the baby is born and a mother’s hormones return to normal.

Rate Of Heartbeat

During her pregnancy, a woman will likely see her doctor every two to four weeks to check on the health of the baby and the mother. It is common for a physician to listen to the baby’s heartbeat to determine his or her health. Some women believe the speed of the baby’s heartbeat can be an indication of the gender. Babies with a heartbeat of one hundred and forty beats per minute are said to belong to a girl while a heartbeat lower than one hundred and forty is said to be a boy.
