Once my Mom confirmed that the improbable was true- that babies grow in the stomach of their mothers, I was most alarmed at the implications for how they "got out".
I was much relieved once I theorized that that was the purpose of our belly button and that it was, no doubt, simply untied, then retied after the baby was removed. O, if it were only true.
