When I was little, I thought a woman would get pregnant by getting a shot. She and her husband would go to the clinic and the doctor would inject a shot into her for a small price. Also, I thought that babies would come out of the butthole.

I used to believe that if you wanted to have a baby, you would go to a doctor, tell him whether or not you wanted a baby and if you wanted it to be a boy or girl, and Voila, your pregnant.

This is something my mother admit to believing as a child:

When my mother was young she for some reason believed that if a man farted on a woman she would become pregnant...since she did manage to have me and my two sisters I guess she eventually figured out this was wrong

I used to think that you got pregnant EVERY time you had sex. My parents taught me about sex very young, and while they told me that people had sex just to have fun, for at least a year, I thought, "But what do they do about all the babies they have?"

I used to believe that god gave couples babies when they got married, sorta just like immaculate conception for everyone. Then,in third grade, my music teacher got married and had a baby 5 months later. I knew that women were pregnant for 9 months, and realized that something was wrong. I asked my mom if maybe god made a mistake and thought they were married before they really were. I don't remember what her response was!

i was about 8 or 9 and a male cousin(im female) told me that women got pregnant because when they have sex the skin rubbed off the guys penis and that made u pregnant!

When I was six I checked a book about the human body out from the library. The last chapter was on reproduction. It explained the process, but left out any concept of volition. I spent some time believing that procreation happened whenever a penis neared a vagina. I was particularly worried that it happened at night, unbeknownst to my sleeping parents, while they were lying in bed next to each other.

When I was about 8, I was talking with my friends, and I actually believed this until I was about 12. Basically in order to get a woman pregnant, you would have to urinate inside of them. I thought this was horribly disgusting, and had no idea why someone would want to do this.

Somehow I knew that in order to get pregnant something from the man had to get inside the woman - and I knew that they had to sleep in the same bed for it to happen.

So for the longest time I thought while the man and the woman were sleeping, whatever it was would crawl out of the man and walk across the sheets and into the woman and make her pregnant.

The thing I worried about was how did it know which way to go in the dark on the sheets and what if it crawled into the wrong person or simply got lost? Did it die? Did it hang around and wait for the next person to get in bed?

I thought that when you got pregnant, that meant that you couldn't marry anyone else then the person you were having the child with....boy was I wrong!

I used to believe when I was little that if I feel alsleep to late I would get pregnant.

When I was a kid, I thought that woman get pregnant simply by looking at their husband. And finally after the birth the child will look like mum or dad (or a mixture) cause mum looked into the mirror and in dad's face too and the characteristics of both faces are somehow transferred "via mother's eyes" into the genes of the child...

I used to think if you wanted to get pregnant you had to get married and both wish as hard as you could for a baby!

Becky

I used to believe that women got pregnent by hanging out with a boy all the time I thought I was my brother's dad because I was around my mom

crazy boy

When i was little i used to believe that you could make babies by putting a seed on the other persons belly button and then lying on top of them. Me and my sister used to try it all the time, until we were told the REAL story of reproduction.

I used to think that if a boy touched a girl, she would get pregnant. When I was 7, a boy had brushed up against me, and I was so worried that I was pregnant that I started crying to my older cousin, who then told me that wasn't how babies were made.
