The idea that the position of a pregnant belly—high or low—can determine the baby’s sex is a common myth but lacks scientific support. According to medical professionals, the way a belly “sits” during pregnancy is influenced more by factors like the mother’s body shape, muscle tone, and the baby’s position than by the baby’s sex. A high or low belly is generally shaped by the mother’s physical characteristics and how the uterus stretches during pregnancy【474†source】【475†source】.
While it can be fun to guess, only medical methods, like ultrasound or blood tests, can reliably determine a baby’s sex.
