I used to think if you kissed people a bunch of times, the germs would form a baby. For this reason, I wondered why men couldn't have babies...

I used to believe that if you rubbed naked feet with someone of the opposite sex you would become pregnant!

When I was in the sixth grade my best friend's sister, who was a year younger than us, thought she would get pregnant if she sat on a toilet seat after a man had used the bathroom.

I used to think that having sex once could lead to pregnancies for the rest of your life. I figured that that's why married couples had honeymoons, so they could start making babies right away.

Katie

I told a friend of mine when I was younger that if he thought about sex the same time the girl he liked thought about it, she would get pregnant.

My grandmother told me HER grandmother said that if she sat on a chair a boy had just sat in, she would get pregnant!

I used to believe that when adults had sex, it was only to have children and that it was only for a second, so that a man could let one sperm come out, but what about twins? I believed that the fathers of twins had left it in too long, and two had come out.

I learned about sex when I was 9, but I had a friend who insisted women got pregnant by a man sticking his penis in her mouth - the woman would swallow the sperm and the baby would grow right in her stomach. I knew better, but she was very adamant about it, even telling me she'd seen a picture in the dictionary. I'd like to know what kind of dictionary she was looking at!

Once when I was 12 years old, I had pains in my lower stomach for about a week, and was convinced for some odd reason that I was pregnant. I wondered how it had happened, seeing as how I'd never had sex. I even started refering to the pain as 'my baby'. I even went to the extreme of looking online to find out the symptons of pregnancy.

It turns out the pain was just from doing sit-ups in gym class. Luckily I never told my parents I thought I was pregnant.

Amanda

When I was six I knew that sperm from a man went into a woman and met an egg to make a baby. I asked my mom if it just flew out and landed in the woman.

When I was very young my mum was reading an article about a young girl who had a baby. She said something like 'Oh poor girl, it's not her fault' and I thought pregnancy was some kind of illness or you got pregnant by dialing the wrong phone number and I was scared I would randomly become pregnant.

Emmy

Growing up I never realized that anything but pee could come out of one's penis. Thus I thought that a man would pee in a woman's vagina to make a baby.

I took this one step further and thought that whenever two people peed in the same toilet a baby would form. I reasoned that there were millions of tiny dead babies in our nation's sewers.

Gambrinus

When I was a kid, I thought the number of children in a family represented the number of times the parents had sex.

My best friend was from a family with eight kids, so I thought his parents were sex maniacs.

Too embarrased to say

When I asked how babies were made my mum told me that the man and lady have a special cuddle which creates a baby in the lady's tummy. I was terrified of hugging a man or boy for years afterwards just in case!

C

When I was a young kid, nobody ever taught me about sex or reproduction. Once I got my period, I was afraid of touching boys because I was afraid of getting pregnant! I would avoid them like the plague. I'm not quite sure why I didn't realize that a whole lot more people would be getting pregnant if this was the case.

Ariel

My four-year-old niece believes that EVERYTHING is made in China, even babies.

My seven-year-old niece argues with her that no, babies are made by your parents. A boy and a girl put the baby in the girl's tummy, using their hands.

chrisnick

I used to believe that there was a tunnel between a girls butt and her vagina. Then I thought that a girl could get pregnant from butt sex...

When I was little, I used to believe that women got pregnant randomly. I didn't know that 'penis in vagina' action was needed in order to properly reproduce, I just thought that you woke up one day and bam, you were pregnant. I remember I used to pray to god anytime I could begging for him to make me pregnant. xD

Kat

I used to believe that you had to pray to tell God what kind of baby you wanted, a girl or boy, and that you had to have a baby no matter what. Then when the babby was born, it magically appeared in front of you, unless you had a c-section- I knew what that was.

Kelly

I used to believe that when a man and a woman kissed, an egg would pass from the mans mouth into the womans, and she would swallow it.
And I thought that the womans body could tell when she wanted a baby so it would just start growing. And when the woman wanted the baby to come out, she would press her belly button... and i never got round to finding out where the baby actually came out....
