My sister was convinced of an intricate baby-making process: the prospective mother and father would go into a room, lock the door, and stay awake all night completing a 2-dimensional puzzle of a baby (which they had bought from a special baby store). At the end of the night, the mother would eat the puzzle, and it then took 9 months for the 'puzzle baby' to become a 3-dimensional real baby, at which point the mother would give birth.
