A childhood belief about getting pregnant

This isn't mine, its my uncles, and its 100% real.

One night my mom, her brothers and sister, along with her parents were all sitting at the dinner table. My Uncle Bill, who was 17 at the time made the statement that "Women can get pregnant through their belly buttons", and he said it with absolute sincerity. My mom and sister tried as hard as they could not to laugh, and my grandparents (his parents) were dumbstruck.
