when I was about three, my mom went into hospital to give birth to my new baby sister. she had a cesarian birth and due to the scar i believed that the new baby had bit her belly when she'd come out!!! I went round telling everyone i hated the new baby cuz of this, poor thing didnt even have teeth!
A childhood belief about giving birth
others believed things like this
- Until I was five, I used to think that women gave birth to baby girls and men gave birth to baby boys— Cassidy K
- I used to think that to give birth, a woman had a slit cut into her inner thigh, and the baby would come out.Anon
- I used to believe that a woman gave birth by pressing her belly button and the baby popped out.
— Tasha K - I thought my neighbor breastfed her baby because they were too poor to afford baby bottles. Maybe they were!— Kristen
- When I was little I thought that women had to get a Cesarian section to deliver the baby.— Patrick
- When I was 4, I thought you chose and bought your baby at the hospital. I believed this until I was 6.Anon
