If a baby is born with two X chromosomes, it must be female. Males have XY chromosomes, females have XX chromosomes, due to how the chromosomes are naturally passed from parents to a child.

Answer;
The baby is a female
Explanation;
If a baby is born with two X chromosomes, it must be female.
Females normally have two similar type of sex chromosomes, that is XX, which are called homogametic.
Males have two different types of chromosomes, that is XY chromosomes, which are called heterogametic.
However, on abnormal conditions, males may have XX chromosomes while female may have XY chromosomes, which are caused by biological conditions.
