You carry how the baby wants to lay. And your body shape. Why would gender have anything to do with your belly lol

This is my second girl and both times I have carried low. It all depends on your body and where baby finds it more comfortable

I don't think sex of the baby has anything to do with the way you carry. My son was high and round, my daughter is low and more of a football shape

I think it depends on the mothers body type, not the gender. I'm having a boy and he's sitting pretty low.

That is an old wives tale. Carrying high or low depends on your stomach muscles.

I carry my babies the same and my first was a girl and this one is a boy. So I think it depends more on the baby's position and your body.
