A childhood belief about getting pregnant

I had about a half-understanding of how babies came to be; I knew that a woman had a womb in her lower belly and the baby grew there, but I thought that to get pregnant, a woman must kiss her husband at her wedding, after which time a ladybug from the man (no idea why a ladybug) would meet the ladybug from the woman in her mouth and travel down to the womb and jump into some swirling mass of baby making junk.
