As a kid I believed that the baby either had to originally be in the mom or the dad, and I believed that my mom just wouldn't tell me which one because it was a big secret. I decided that it was the sperm that was to become the baby because it could already move, and mom wouldn't admit to that because she was jealous that dad had the baby first.
