When I was pregnant with my second child, I jumped at the opportunity to use the pregnancy as a 9 month long sex education/biology/anatomy lesson for my nine year old son. With puberty right around the corner, I'd rather he learned the awful truth from me than have his head filled with crap from his friends. He was very involved with the pregnancy right from the start and even acted as my labor coach. Right before the big day, I quizzed him on where babies come from. He said, "First, you ovulated and then you and dad had sex. Then dad SPIT A BIG WAD OF SPERM IN YOUR MOUTH and fertilized the egg..." Needless to say, we had to have a refresher course on the sex part.
