I used to belief that if you kissed a boy you would get pregnant...needless to say my first kiss was followed by horrendous concern.

When I was in second grade, I used to think that you could get pregnant by letting a boy kiss you. Well, at recess my "boyfriend" kissed me on the cheek and I didn't think anything of it...until I got back to class and my stomach started to hurt. Then I proceeded to roll around around the floor holding my stomach and hollering "I'm gonna have a baby, I'm pregnant and I'm gonna have a baby!!"

When I was younger, I thought the sperm traveled in the mouth of a women when kissing, but soon I found out that it wasn't true

I used to believe that my mother would have another baby whenever a man would give her a kiss. During the holidays relatives would visit, and as they entered the house, give my mom a kiss on the cheek. I remember thinking "oh no!" here comes another brother or sister.

This is all funny to me these days.

I used to hang out with this boy who lived next door to my family. He was the same age as myself and we called each other "boyfriend and girlfriend" a lot. Anyway, we were about the age 8 or 9 when we started "playing house"... One time he kissed me on the cheek and told me he would be home late for work on one of the house playing games. I remember freaking out for about a week thinking he got me pregnant...only because I used to think "kissing" made babies.

When I was little, I saw the episode of "I Love Lucy" in which Lucy is giving birth. As Lucy and Ricky are in the hospital, Ricky's sitting on the bed next to his wife, acting all happy and joyful, and they kiss. Then the nurse walks in and says something like, "No kissing. That's what got you into this mess in the first place." This lead me to believe that you got pregnant by kissing. Only for a short while, however, after which I forgot about it.

When I was in 6th grade I kissed a boy and thought that I would get pregnant.

When I was about 6 I thought babies were made when couples kissed each other in the mouth. One time a friend of my class was talking to me and a bit of saliva flew from his mouth and landed on mine. I spent 2 days afraid that I was pregnant and that made me find the courage to ask my grandmother how the babies were really made! I was relieved.

When I was little I used to think you could become pregnant from kissing and that babies came out of your belly button.

If someone stuck his tongue inside your mouth (french kissing) you got preggie!!
I was 12 years old at the time......and that was back in 1960. I got frenched kissed by a boy in the Tunnel of Love at an amusement park. I was so upset. Eventually through much prodding, I finally told my mother and blurted out "I'm pregnant!"

It was a different time - different era and sex was spoken in whispers. Even parents didn't say much to their kids about sex. My how things have changed - and I love it!!

I used to believe you could get pregnant from kissing boys. So for a long, long time, I wouldn't kiss boys.
