It depends on your concept of beauty. To the Mayans when the children were born they were sometimes seen as flawed as Mayan concepts of beauty were different to modern 'Western' beauty. At an early age the children had a bead dangled in front of their eyes to make them cross-eyed as this was seen as a mark of beauty. They also used clay molds to enlarge their noses and had other 'modifications' made to them as they grew up to give them the Mayan Beauty. It can not be said if the Mayan children were pretty in the Mayan's eyes when they were first born, but no matter what they looked like personally i think any child is 'pretty' as you put it, because it's what's on the inside that counts

I hope this helps
