National Geographic Explorer Testosterone Factor - YouTube
Watch a few minutes of that starting at 12 minutes. The whole video is quite interesting as well as it explores how testosterone affects the body of males and also females, but this particular segment about the babies is more on topic right now.
Edit: I've fixed the URL so that when you click on it, it starts right at 12 minutes.
