When I was young I thought that boy babies came out of their fathers and girl babies came out of their mothers.

I used to think that having a baby was totally random and the only way to make sure they didn't come was to hold your stomach really tight so there was no room.. Walking around in 4th grade holding your stomach gets tiring after a while.

When i was little i thought that the mom's gave birth to the daughters and the dad's gave birth to the sons.

when i was a kid i used to believe that inside a mummys tummy babies were dressed up in a mac and hat waiting impatiently with their suitcase for the lift to stop at the ground!!!!!!!
Dunno where i got that idea from!!

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.

When i was little i used to think people made babies by putting their nipples together

I used to think that people would get married, be married for a few years,then just be pregnant. Then when they didnt want to have anymore babies, you said "NO MORE BABIES!" and it would stop.

When I was very young, I used to think you bought babies in shops and if you
did not want them when you got them home,you could take them back.

I used to believe that when girls became women, they would start producing babies, much like a fruit tree produces fruit. I wondered how a woman's body knows when she is married, and worried that my body may be off, and start producing children before I got married. I went to my mother, and remarked, "I hope I don't have any babies before I get married." My mother responded, " I hope not too." I was the REALLY worried then as I knew it was possible!

according to my young mind (until 10y/o?)A woman became pregnant by a men urinating in her during sex...phew, I'm glad that's NOT the way it works!

I used to think that in order for women to breastfeed, they would have to go to the doctor who would poke a tiny hole in their nipples to let the milk come out... I was so stressed about having to go thru that when I got older!!!

A mom who knows better!

When my dad was little he asked my grandma how a baby was made. She got quite flustered and simply said "A seed is planted" for several years that if you wanted a baby you had to plant it in your garden

I used to belive that your parents went to heaven and told god what type of child you wanted. I'm ten and I know what really happens (shudder)

I used to believe that babies came from outer-space. :)

my 11 year old brother believes a vagina is called a "china" and when I said that I wanted to go to china one day he started freaking out and told my mom i liked girls. we still haven't corrected him because it's SO funny.

When I was about 4 or 5, I couldn't take my eyes of this lady standing in the queue in the bakers. I wondered why on earth she had a football up her dress.Anyway curiosity eventually got the better of me and I asked her inocently in front of every one. Everyone laughed out loud and the lady said "my dear, it's not a football,it's a BABY!

i figured out most things about sex etc by the time i was 8. But i didn't understand the whole term "sleeping together" as meaning what it does. So, once, my friends and i, aged about 7 i suppose, were sitting around whispering- they didn't know much, probably less than me, and the conversation got to "sleeping together" where i announced that i had slept with a boy, and it was okay, and that we'd done that lots of times, and last time, it was in a tent! (a family friend!) Then when i was about 14, i remembered that conversation... ouch.

When I asked my mom where babies came from (i was 3) she told me they came from flying storks. Then i asked my dad and he told me the real reason. I didnt know what to believe so i just decided mommy stuck her penis into storks.

Confused one

When i was younger I thought that to have a baby, a man & a woman would kiss and a seed (i imagined it like a watermelon seed) would travel from the man through his body and through his throat into the woman's mouth, and she would swallow it and it would grow into a baby!!!

When I was about 10 or 11 I thought that if u rubbed ur belly-button 3 times and wished for a baby it would come out of the end of your finger. So I never EVER touched or talked about my belly button for a long time...that was..until i found out the truth. lol. I was a very weird child.
