There comes a time in every childs' life where they ask,
"Where do babies come from?"
When I asked this to my mother, she told me that babies come from from their mommy's tummy, where they get all the food and nutrience that they needed to grow. So here's what I saw in my mind's eye:
A woman with a large bulge in her stomach. In that bulge there was a baby (fully clothed) standing up and kicking at the sides of the mother's 'tummy'. Like a robot, the mother eats her dinner. The food falls from her throat and rains onto the baby with no signs of being chewed up. From there the baby eats it.
You must understand that I didn't know how the digestive system worked then either. To me it was PERFECTLY logical to have food raining onto an unborn child.

I believed (thanks to my mum) that babies grew on "baby trees" and simply 'fell off' when they were ripe!!!

I used to think that u made babies by making them with play-doh. I had a dream that made me think this.

my mom used to joke around about getting me at jcpennys...and well i believed it so when i was asked where i was born i used to say..."JCPENNYS!" i thought that u bought a little packet and made the baby like by sewing it

I thought Sperm Whales and Semen (Seamen) were in some way related.

When I was in elementary school, an older student told me that if you had a pain in your right side, you were having a baby girl. A pain in your left side ment you were having a baby boy. I had to get my appendix out at the age of 17 - thankfully, I had learned where babies came from by then.

I studied French at university and in my second year (I was 19) I wrote an essay on nineteenth-century short stories. One story featured a strange bear-man who had been conceived when his mother had sex with a bear. I told my tutor that this fitted the description of a "conte fantastique" perfectly, because although events seemed supernatural, there was also a logical explanation and what happened in the story, although unlikely, could happen in real life. He looked at me in amazement and then said, very slowly, "look, I know we're not studying biology here..."

When I was about 8 and learned about the birdsand the bees,I assumed that the babies were born just a few weeks after sex. I also believed that the expectant mommy had to be careful to make sure, when she went to the bathroom, that she was just pooping, and wasn't giving birth. I also wondered how many babies had been flushed down the toilet by unobservant mothers.

This isn't actually my belief, it is (or was) the belief of a classmate of mine. She thought that babies were delivered by a stork. Sort of reasonable, right? Wrong. She wasn't 3 or 4. She was 15. And in Honors Biology.

i used to think that all girls and women were born with little fetus-like things growing inside them, and once you reached a certain age it would automatically start growing into a baby.

i used to think people could go to winn dixie to pick up their baby....

I used to believe that to make babies, a man would pee into a woman's butt. There. I said it.

I thought that people have babies as soon as they kiss.

Lots of other kids told me this when I was about 8.

(you know how much kids fear sex)

when i was about 4,i thought that when you were pregnant you had all of your kids at once, seince i just have a sister,i figured we were just both made in the stomach,but my aunt had 4 kids,so i thought 2 of them grew in the back. it took me about a year to realize they were born seperate (but she had 2 sets of twins, weird huh?)

When I was a little kid, I thought the word "orgasm" was synonymous with having sex. So when my brother asked how you could have more than one baby, I said all the mom and dad have to do is have more than one orgasm. Mom got this cleared up really fast.

Since I can remember, my dad told me and my brother that he got us from Japanese monsters. So whenever we were being bad, he'd tell us that he was gonna give us to the gypsies. Up until the time I was about 8 or 9, i thought that gypsies were Japanese monsters.

once i was watching to young kids. we had been outside catching ladybugs, and had a huge jar full of them. one of the kids started screaming. when i asked her what was wrong, she told me that there were two ladybugs that were fighting. she showed me the mating ladybugs and said "look they're tackling eachother".

Fighting Ladybugs!!!

For the longest time, I had no idea how babies were made. I read about evolution in a magazine, and concluded that all the time, monkeys were evolving into people. I guess adult apes turned into babies then.

I used to think the stork brought us to our parents house. Honestly, I remember and friend of mine and me talking, we both agreed that storks had to have brought us, because our parents would do something as disgusting as having sex.

When I was 3-8 I thought that something in your spit caused you to have children!
