I used to believe that moms get pregnant just by praying to God..
When i was 3 i asked my mom how she got pregnant.. She told me she just prayed everyday so that God will give her a baby boy..Thinking it was true, the stupid me wanted to have a baby of my own (at the age of 3!hahaha)..in the end, i kept on praying secretly everyday, even kneeling down to the floor! months passed and i kept on checking my tummy--still flat..so i ended giving up and told myself my mom was a liar..
just laughing at this good ol memory everytime i would have my anatomy class..never thought having babies could be so exciting and complicated..hehehe..sigh* (",)

When I was 5, my mom was pregnant. I already knew where babies come from so I asked her if the baby would be a boy or a girl. She says it depends on what you eat. If you eat meat then the baby would be a boy, if you eat fruits and vegetables then the baby would be a girl. I always believed her ever since because she ate meat during the pregnancy of me and my brother, and for my sisters pregnancy she ate fruits and veggies...

Before i knew about babies and where they came from..
I just thought that pregnant women were just really really fat :D
When I was little and heard about how babies originated from eggs in your stomach, i always thought that the egg was originally a seed that grew to an egg. either you were born with the seed or not. I would go to my parents and asked them if they could feel the seed moving in my stomach and was very disappointed when they said it wasn't there.
I used to believe that you could choose the sex of your child because of what a classmate told me in the fifth grade.
I thought that if you wanted a boy, a man inserted his penis in a woman's vagina. If you wanted a girl, a man would insert his penis in a woman's anus. And that if a man urinated into a woman's vagina this would create conjoined twins.
I was a gullible 11-year old

My mother was pregnant when I was 7 and I asked where babies come from. The only part I remember is "daddy plants a seed" so I thought babies were planted outside the hospital windows in flower pots.

I used to think I could get pregnant by using my dad's bath towel. Terrifying.

I used to believe that twins were created by having sex really fast, two times in a row. I believed that until the age of about 27....I'm Catholic...go figure!

I used to believe that drinking milk got you pregnant. I wanted a little sister, so I gave my mom a glass of milk with pink food dye ever 10 minutes.
That you got had a baby by kissing.

I believed that it was physically impossible for women to get pregnant unless they were married-- like a special pregnancy hormone was released after marriage. I wasn't too sure of the means, but I knew I wouldn't have to worry about it until I was happily wed!

After finding my dad's stash of pornographic pictures I thought I learned about the birds and the bees: Pregnancy is initiated by putting a penis into a woman's mouth.
Very strange year of my life.

When I was a child, my parents did a thorough job of explaining how babies were made. I knew women had vaginas, men had penises, women had eggs, men had sperm, and babies were made when the sperm and egg got together. However, I didn't realize that the penis had to be inside the vagina for this to happen. When I got a new, male teacher in 2nd grade, I was petrified that his sperm would get my eggs pregnant. I could picture the sperm wiggling across the floor, crawling up my legs, and getting into my vagina, so I would sit with my legs crossed so tightly together my legs would fall asleep. After a few weeks of this, I asked my mom for a little more clarification, and I could tell she felt really guilty!

I used to believe that if a girl swam in a public pool that a boy had peed in she would become pregnant

My parents had the sex talk with me relatively young, but apparently they didnt go into enough detail. I thought you could get pregnant just by touching a penis to the outer vaginal area. So when I was around 3 me and my neighbor were playing "Ill show you mine if you show me yours" and we touched our areas thinking it was sex.
I also wasnt aware that the human gestational period is a mere 9 months so for at least two years after this incident I had an immense fear that I was pregnant and would punch my stomach to "kill the baby".

I used to think that how babies were made was that when people got married, some magical force knew that they then wanted a baby and gave them one.
i used to think that:
1. women became pregnant if they loved their husband enough
2. babies developed in the stomach
3. babies came out the pee hole
I used to believe that one needed to marry to produce babbies
