I was completely convinced that if you wanted a baby, all you had to do was pray for one. Then God would put a teeny tiny baby on your belly at night. It would then find your belly button and crawl into your stomach through it. After it grew enough, the only possible way of birth was through surgery.

When i was about 7 my older sister told me i could get pregnant by sittingon a boys knee and so when my uncle pulled me on his knee i screamed "im too you for kids please dont get me pregnant!" I went as red as a beetroot when everyone laughed as i didnt know what was so funny!

I remember this only vaguely, but my mum recently filled in the gaps in the story. When I was about 6 I asked how babies got into a mummy's tummy. She decided it was time for me to know, so she asked me " you've seen both Mummy and Daddy with no clothes on when we are in the shower...what's different about each of us?" I thought for a while and answered " Mummy wears a shower hat and Daddy doesn't." My mum decided perhaps I wasn't ready to be told after all!

When I was about 4 or 5, my mom told me that babies came from "a little seed inside mommy's tummy". Sometime afterwards I attempted to make my 6 yr old sister have a baby so I tried to push an apple seed in her belly button!

When I was little, I asked about how a woman got pregnant. My mom explained that a man planted a seed in a woman and it grew like in a garden. For years I thought there was dirt and plants in my moms belly and my dad was planting seeds there and this scared me!

I used to believe that after a certain age women just got pregnant at random, like one day they would just wake up pregnant with no say in the matter whatsoever.

This Catholic pregnant teenager kept bragging that she was still a virgin, like she was better than the rest of us pregnant teens. I told her the whole point of being a virgin, is so you don't get pregnant before you get married. And since she was already pregnant, she and her boyfriend might as well have sex. The rest of the pregnant teen group agreed with me. The Catholic girl got quite upset. This is what happens in schools with no sex education.

When I was in kindergarden, my mom became pregnant with my brother. She explained to me how her stomach hurt and she felt really sick. Well, one day I go to school and my stomach hurt, and I told my friend about what my mom said and how I felt, and we both agreed that I was pregnant. We walked around at recess asking the boys if they wanted to be the dad and when we came back in had a "party." My teacher had to call my mom when I asked the teacher if I could have asprin...

When I was very young, I used to think that women got pregnant by eating their wedding cake. It seemed logical to me at the time... a couple got married, and soon afterwards, had a baby. I surmised that they must put something in that cake that would make the wife pregnant, because that's the only thing all married couples had in common -- the wedding cake!

When I was a little girl the boy next door tole me that babies were mae when the boy peed in the girl's belly button. We tried it and I fully believed I was going to have a baby!

I took "when a man and a woman love each other very much..." too literally -- because that was all I got to hear! I thought that simply by being married (and, therefore, in love), one was risking getting pregnant at any time, regardless of any actual interaction with the couple. It all just happened by chance.

When I was about five, I was under the impression that a woman HAD (and I mean legally) to be married in order to get pregnant. Well, the teachers aid in class was pregnant and one of the girls asked her if she had a husband, and I jumped in right away with, Of course she does, it's against the law to have a baby without a husband!" The look on my face when she snapped that she didn't have a husband and that you didn't have to have one must have been priceless!

I used to believe that if you said "x" 100 times it would become "sex" and you would get pregnant. I also used to beleive If someone und er 21 had a baby she wqould die.

When I was younger I wanted a little sibling pretty badly. I asked my parents how babies were made (you know, THEE question,) and they told me that you got them by praying. However safe they thought their answer was- my childlike faith was destroyed when for weeks I prayed for a brother or sister that never came!

Age

I am still a kid who is in middle school but when I was a bit younger I used to think that when the first time you kissed a boy on the lips you would become pregnant.

my friend is...how shall we say..not gifted in the intullectual department, she told me that in about 6th grade (i was in 7th grade at the time,now im in 8th)her little 2 year old cousin humped her leg and she thought she was going to get pregnant and stayed in her room all day thinking of how she was gonna tell her parents (and she was in 6th grade!)

i used to beleive that if people had sex upside down then u wouldnt get pregnant!

When i was 7 i knew about sex (well, the male's part) thanx to my big brother. Another thing i believed was that if you swallowed any you-know-what a baby would grow in your throat!

When I was about 5 years old,as I a joke I asked my mom how baby's were made (seeing kids ask it all the time on t.v.) Well my mom,being a nurse, went in to full detail.Needless to say,I wanted the stork to bring my brother home and hope to god that my mom was lying.

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.
