Well
I think 'Bouncing baby girl' just does not sound the same. You need the three ‘B’ sounds in a row.
My niece is much more bouncy than my boys, although none of them are babies right now.

I've also wondered why only baby boys bounce....Perhaps baby girls are already worried about what body parts might jiggle if they bounce!

There ya go thinking again
I think it is a reference to the child being born healthy. Enough of the serious crap though, read this:
Two babies were sat in their cribs, when one baby shouted to the other, "Are you a little girl or a little boy?"
"I don't know," replied the other baby giggling.
"What do you mean, you don't know?" said the first baby.
"I mean I don't know how to tell the difference," was the reply.
"Well, I do," said the first baby chuckling. "I'll climb into your crib and find out."
He carefully maneuvered himself into the other baby's crib, then quickly disappeared beneath the blankets. After a couple of minutes, he resurfaced with a big grin on his face. "You're a little girl, and I'm a little boy," he said proudly.
"You're ever so clever," said the baby girl, "but how can you tell?"
"It's quite easy really," replied the baby boy, "you've got pink booties and I've got blue ones.

Avant, ya know what? You may just have a VERY good point here!
I agree. I do think boys are easier than girls....in most aspects, at least.

Rubber baby buggy bumpers is even more disturbing and confusing! What the hell is

I've had three, and none of them bounced. But, I have been told numerous times that boys are much easier than girls. Perhaps that is the origin of the saying.

This clearly describes my middle son, who fortunately bounced every time his older brother dropped him...

Perhaps he is
made of rubber. How do you know if you bounce, have you ever jumped off the top of a building to see. I doubt any of us bounce, so like you I wonder where the hell did this come from. Maybe it has a connection to rubber baby buggy bumpers.

Isis,
Hmmm, does it ever make you wonder why you have kids that snarl and foam at the mouth? hehe

Doy! I know I'm silly, can't help it! Your posts bring out my lighter side, the one with the butane.
Actually I hide my cynicism behind a thin tinkling of humor. Say, did I ever tell you I call my Aries boy Devon my little firecracker? He actually SNARLS when he's mad can you believe that?
Of course, Philip is a Taurus and he used to throw tantrums till he was foaming at the mouth....I don't remember any of them bouncing very well as infants though.

Smartdog,
K, but then why did so many others start calling their baby boys "bouncing?" Copycats, I guess.

Spitz,
It must be because boys are made of rubber and girls are made of glue! Uhhh....something like that anyway.

Perhaps a boy who enjoys being bounced on his mom's/pop's knees. For some reason I've always thought that was where the saying comes from.
Be well,

I'm aware this is more of a humorous observation, than a serious question
however, if you actually were a little curious:
http://www.randomhouse.com/wotd/index.pperl?date=20000717
Jack and Jill went up a hill
To fetch some marijuana
Jack got high and unzipped his fly
And Jill said, "I don't wanna."
