WHEN I WAS IN PRE-SCHOOL I WOULD START CRYING WHEN I SWALLOWED A SEED, CUZ I THOUGHT A PLANT WOULD START GROWING IN MY STOMACH, AND WHEN THE SPRPOUT GOT TO MY MOUTH IT WOULD BE SO BIG I'D NOT BE ABLE TO CLOSE MY MOUTH.

When I was about 4 I used to believe that when you swallowed a seed from any fruit or vegetable that it would grow in your stomcah.

I was a very inquisitive child. When my older sister was pregnant she told me it was because of watermelons. I was like WHY?! She explained on how when you eat the seeds they go into your belly and it grows & grows and then out comes a baby. I was like HOW?! She told me that it was like real watermelon. The baby comes out attached to this vine and the outside stays inside for other babies to grow in the next time she ate the seeds of a watermelon. Needless to say I was scared of watermelon for years! And to this day I don't eat watermelon seeds & of course discovered the 'reality of reproduction' when I was much older.

The little sister.
