That sounds about right they say over 150bpm is a girl and under is a boy but not accurate thou. . And Heart rate varies. . When They are awake, sleeping, when u have eaten etc

heart rate is variable as to time of day, i.e at night will be less and during more active periods will be more just like you or i.

At my last checkup at 28 weeks, it was between 131 - 143 for mine (girl). It is usual for the heartbeat to decease during each trimester. I started at 154 @ 16weeks. The normal fetal heart rate for the middle of the pregnancy of about 120-180 bpm.
