Baby’s sex not linked to shape of mother: “The widely held belief that a woman’s body shape can influence the sex

of her children has been undermined by a new study.

Folklore has it that a curvy “hour glass” body-shape is supposed to

produce girls and a more androgynous shape, boys. Evolutionary

biologists thought this was because a a less curvy body is supposed to have

higher levels of the male sex hormone testosterone, which favours more

male conceptions.” Telegraph
