Back when I was about 5 or 6, I had asked my Dad, of all people, the question: where do babies come from. He had gone quiet and because I couldn't take a hint at that age started to guess. My Dad stopped me when I asked if babies came out of the a mother's mouth or belly button.

When I was little i asked my mom "where do babies come from?", they can come out, but how do they get in.. she said "well.. daddy and I hug a lot and then a baby will grow out of an egg" I started to think but i thought it was a bit weird to hug and then make an egg.. out of wood I imagined.. and then put it into her belly through the bellybutton.. I believed it for quite a while

that when a woman wanted a baby she had to press her tummy button every day to make her tummy get bigger as the baby grew then when she thought the baby was ready she pushed her belly button really hard and the baby just appeared in her arms

I never believed in a stork, but I never ever asked my parents (or anyone else either). I just used to think that when a man and woman marry that God just put the baby into the mom. It was magic. Or so I thought.

When I was little I used to believe that when you were born you already had a VERY tiny baby growing inside of you.Every year that baby got a teeny bit bigger. When you wanted the baby to come out you just went to the doctors and they would cut open your stomach and take it out. I believed that all the way up till 4th grade.

When I was a child I went to a boarding school for the blind. We guys were trying to figure out where babies came from (with no knowledge of the female anatomy). We concluded that the husband put the sperm in his wife's anus and the baby came out her naval.

Boy was I surprised when I got older.

My ex-boyfriend (who was in his 20's) thought just because he had twin brothers, it was without question he would father only twins. And he thought pregnancy would happen every time a man and woman had sex. Never heard of a condom or the birth control pill, obviously.

Wow missed that bullet

When I was in year 4 at school we where learning about Egypt and I’ll never forget when another boy told the teacher that in Egypt a baby was born every 26 seconds. I was totally amazed by this and I actually believed that all the women gave birth every 26 seconds. I was more worried about the thought of having to pick so many different names for that many children.

I used to believe that boys had boy babies, and girls had girl babies.

That was when I was 3-7. I'm 15 now.

when i was younger my mum used to tell me that she found me under a tree and funnily enough i believed her until i was 7 n my sister came along, until then i used to ask her to put me back under the tree and let someone else find me!!

i used to believe for a woman to get pregnant she had to marry then the husband has to work get money home buy her lots of food for her to eat and her stomach becomes big and a baby is inside.

When I was 2 and my Mum was pregnant with my brother she used to take me with her when she had her check-ups with the nurse.

When the nurse took her blood pressure she used the old-fashioned type thing which you have to pump by hand. I used to think that when she pumped up the machine she was pumping my Mum's tummy up too!!!

My daghter got very curious about how babies get in the mommys tummy. She was not satisfied with the safe answers I was providing. So I gave her a slightly technical but edited version of how it startes to grow in the mommy. I told her mommys have very small eggs inside them, and that daddys put a lot of very small sperm inside the mommy that have a race and swim to the egg. Who ever gets there first goes in the egg, and startes growing into a baby. She seemed satisfied with the answer. I asked if she had any questions and she replyed No. about a week later we were going to the store just me and her. She was very quiet and I asked her what she was thinking. She said," Moma does sperms got faces?" I replyed "No honey why?" She then asked me how they know how to get to the egg if they can not see where they are going. I replyed, "They just know." I was trying so hard not to laugh.

I asked my parents when I was a little lass "How do babies get here?"
And my mom told me that when a mommy and a daddy get along together they "get" a baby.

A few years ago I reminded my mom of what she told me.
She laughed and said " Well, getting along helps doesn't it?"

i had no idea that sex involved movement till i was 15 (after 2 different sex ed classes) i also didnt know that ejaculation was what cuased the women to get pregnant so i basically thought sex was when a man lied on top of a women and somehow the sperm got magically to the egg i was always very confused when my friends talked about cum and what not then at 15 i discovered porn and everything made so much sense

Klaire (very sheltered and very misinformed)

When i was younger i believed that when a woman was pregnant she fed the baby through her bellybutton and not throung the umbillical (sorry for the spelling) cord.

never having children...just kidding

when i was 4 i asked my mom from where do babies come from and she said that a bird drops the into the chimney. when every i saw a house without a chimney i wondered from where do the parents have a baby so i assumedthey had no baby so i felt sad from them.

when i was younger i believed that no one got pregnant from having sex for the first time and that coca cola was a cheap and efficient spermicide. needless to say i was far too young to try out these ideas and the back copies of Jackie magazine in our local library soon straightened me out. thank the lord.

One day when I was very little, I asked my dad the dreaded question "where did I come from?" He told me I was born out of a baked bean tin and they picked me up in the supermarket. It took me a long time to figure out that bake bean tins didnt come in that size.
