Question

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and getting really excited to meet my baby. Ive been thinking a lot about whether it's a boy or a girl, and while Im happy either way, I'm curious about something I heard. Is it true that you can predict a babys gender based on their heart rate?

As a doctor, I can reassure you that there is no scientific evidence to support the idea that a baby's heart rate can predict its gender. While some myths suggest a higher heart rate indicates a girl and a lower one a boy, it's just thatmyths. The heart rate varies for many reasons and isn't linked to gender. Just focus on enjoying your pregnancy, and your baby's health is what matters most!

I'm a bit worried because I frequently orgasm through clitoral stimulation, and my husband helps me with it two to three times a week. Could there be any side effects to this? I'm also concerned about whether it might affect our chances of conceiving.

Question

I'm really concerned because I found out that there's a small, clear cyst on my cervix, and it's 9.66cm in length. I'm worried if this is a Nabothian cyst and if its something I should seriously consider surgery for. What should I do, or what kind of treatments are there?
