A childhood belief about getting pregnant

Once when I was 12 years old, I had pains in my lower stomach for about a week, and was convinced for some odd reason that I was pregnant. I wondered how it had happened, seeing as how I'd never had sex. I even started refering to the pain as 'my baby'. I even went to the extreme of looking online to find out the symptons of pregnancy.

It turns out the pain was just from doing sit-ups in gym class. Luckily I never told my parents I thought I was pregnant.
