When my little sister was about 4 years old, my mom was explaining pregnancy to her. My mom told her about the baby growing inside the mother, how it starts as an egg and grows into a person and then she mentioned that it grew in a sac filled with water. My little sister got a horrified look on her face and my mom, obviously worried, asked her "What's wrong?" and my sister said, "but aren't there sharks and fishes in there?"

At first,I used to think that parents go to hostpital and bye babies at 100 busks.

When, I grew older and learn that babies are born from mother's belly, I was surprised about some babies who have more than one mother. I thought that such babies are borne in parts from each of his mothers.

When my brother and I were little, we used to believe that when ur mum eats a lot...she becomes too fat. And all the bananas she ate became legs, the pumpkins made head and all these other foods made body parts. Then mum would vomit all the junk she didn't need and she would everyday. Then the doctor had to take the baby out by opening the tummy and then peeling off the skin of all the vegetables anf fruits...bizarrae...i know

I always thought that all girls were born with a little tiny baby in there stomaches, and as they grow, the baby would grow with them and the girls wolud eventually get pregnent.
I've been telling my twin sister this for the longest time.

When I was younger I believed that the moment before a person was born, they would appear before a tall desk with a thick book on it. The book was the story of that person's life, and they had to choose to read their life, or live it. The stillborn babies chose to read about it and the babys that were born chose to live their life is my logic. hahaha

When I was younger, I used to think that when little girls were born, a TEENY TINY baby was already in their tummy and would grow up and come out when she was married or in her 20's.

Well, When I was younger, I went to a Catholic school. The way we learned sex education was to read it from a book. The book said that a woman got pregnant through an opening in her body, but they didn't say where....so I thought that there was a hole in every woman's side where they got pregnant.

I had asked my Mom where babies came from. She responded that a Mom and a Dad made a baby out of an egg. I wasn't able to pry the facts out of her for months; in the mean time I assumed that mom and dad went to an Egg Factory and assembled eggs (which closely represented Mr. Potato Heads) together... Daddy added his pieces, and Mommy added hers...

Up until I was about eight, I thought sex was only done to make babies; I had no idea that it was pleasurable or that people did it for fun. I knew all about how the actual act of reproduction worked (with the exception of penises having to become erect first), but not why people would do it except perhaps out of boredom or a sense of duty.

One day, when I was about 6 or so, while watching a movie on TV, I asked my Mom where babies come from. She told me that a man and woman get married and then they have babies. Several years later, my Mom told me that the girl who had been my all time favorite babysitter was pregnant. My response? I didn't know Tana was married.

I used to belive that children were simply a by-product of getting married and that sex wasn't involved at all. Once a couple was married someone would come along and deliver children to them.

when i was younger i used to believe that when people wanted to have a baby, they simply went to the hospital and purchased one. i thought that all the parents looking at their children from behind the window at the nursery were prospective buyers.

I used to believe babies just happened. I would visit my aunt who was unmarried living alone and ask her if she was going to have a baby yet. Got told to quit asking that.

i used to think babies were brought by the birds and were made in this special"baby-goo" factory.i was less then 6/7 then.

I thought babies were one year old when they were born. I corrected my neighbor when she told me her baby was 2 weeks old. She said, "well, they have to be something before they're one, don't they?"

When I was in the third grade, my best friend told me 'where babies come from'...Don't ask me why my best friend got around to telling me sooner than my parents, but all the same...I denied that MY parents did that, and said that MY parents would never do such a thing! After a lengthy debate I returned home only to find out how wrong I was. I'll never forget that...

I was standing in the lunch line in fourth grade. my best friend, at the time, told me the story of "sex"! From that day on i understood that a boy puts his "thing"(her terms) inside of you, the the boy pees inside the girl! then, BOOM!, your pregnant with a baby! When we had sex ed in the 5th grade, I was blown away by the fact of sperm! Needless to say, I was still stupid enough to raise my hand and ask about the whole "peeing" thing!!!!

I know this is very wrong but I did use to believe that black children were born from their mothers bums.
I also used to believe that all babies were born into the toilet too..
