I was the last child my parents wanted, so when I was about 3 years old, my dad got "fixed." Because of that, he couldn't pick me up for a while. To explain why he couldn't pick me up, my parents told me he got a shot so they wouldn't have any more babies. I am now 20, and just the other day I was talking to my mom about my fiance getting the "shot" after we had 2 kids. She then laughed hysterically and explained that there was more to it than that.

In Hinduism, when a lady gets married, she wears a 'mangalsutra', or a thin necklace as a sign of marriage, just like rings in Christianity. I used to believe that's what got them pregnant!

Until I was 10, I used to believe that babies came out by clawing their way out of women's abdomens. Like a baby chick pecking its way out of an egg... or like the Alien movies

When I was little, I thought having sex was when you kissed a lot in only you underwear or underwear and bra. If you had any more clothing then that it's just kissing. otherwise, a baby popped into your stomach.
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.

When I was six I thought that mothers already had babies inside them. I knew where they came from, that women had to give birth, but I thought that when the woman chose when to "have" it, like, get pregnant with it. I was not really that far off, when you think about it...

When I was 6 years old, I thought the way in which a woman got pregnant carried out as follows: The married couple would go to a restaurant where they would sit at a table naked. Then they would each drink of glass of each other's urine. The woman would then be pregnant. I was absolutely repulsed by this idea and never wanted to have sex.

When my mom was teaching me about sex she said about how the father puts his "seed" in the mother and I pictured like an actual seed like for a plant would come out of his penis and thought it sounded painful
I thought when your parents have you they choose if you are a boy or girl (or at least the mother chooses but I figured she and the father would discuss it a lot before she made her choice)

When I was a little girl, all the "where babies come from" books said that babies are made in a special place between your legs.
I spent three years convinced that babies where conceived by rubbing your knees together.

When I was little, I was with my cousins and my aunt. My aunt decided she'd tell us a little about how babies are made. She said that "they take a part of the man and put it in the woman." I had always known where babies come out, so I thought the mommy and daddy went to the doctor and the doctor cut open the daddy's stomach, took a piece out, cut open the mommy's, put it in there, then the baby would grow in the stomach. :)

When I was little I thought that when a woman gives birth, the baby explodes out of her stomach. One day when I was little, my younger cousin and I were playing like I was pregnant. when I had the baby, he said it would come out my "private parts." I, of course, didn't believe him.
