this: We say {puqloD} and {puqbe'}, which are literally
'childman' and 'childwoman'. So I think {ghu loD} is more
logical.

In addition, we also have the {qItbe'} a female kind of
guineafowl.

Cousins are {lorbe'} and {lorloD}, and {tey'be'} and {tey'loD}.

This might confirm that the gender follows the type it odifies.
Having {be'nal} and {loDnal}, doe not count by the way, beause
here, all the nal-ed family memebers end with {-nal}.

But what if Klingons do not make a difference with babies? We
don't do that in English either, do we?
<br>
<br>
To avoid the problem, I would make this two phrases:
<br>
{ghu vIlegh. loD ghaH.}

<p>That implies to my mind that the baby is a man. Say this instead:
<b>ghu vIlegh; loDHom ghaH.</b><br>
