giving birth

I used to believe that when women wanted to have babies, their heads would be cut open and the baby would come out through it and then they would be stiched back up. i just didn't want to believe the real way.

I thought women gave birth through some separate passage (not the vagina) that appears and opens up on the front of the belly, and closes and disappears after. I thought this because I know babies came from their mummy's tummy, and some misleading info from my mum, something about a 'cave' opening up...

I used to think that babies came from the moms belly button. I was such a dork.

I used to think that babies popped out of the mothers stomach, through her belly button.

I used to believe that babies came out through the mother's belly and they sewed up the stomach afterwards.

I must have watched a cesarean section on television. Anyway I got the idea that all babies were born by the doctor cutting open the mama's tummy and taking the baby out. When another child suggested a certain body opening that babies came out through, I thought that this person was being horribly disgusting and had a sick sense of humor.

I asked my mom how do people get babies out of their tummy, she said they need to squeeze the baby out like they're pooping. I thought pregnant women have to check the toilet bowl and make sure if the baby is born or not before flushing.

This is not my belief, but my step-cousin's:

When my step-mother was pregnant with my half-sister Alice, my step-cousin was fascinated by the whole affair, and couldn't wait for Alice to come out so she could play with her. Evetually it was explained to my step-cousin that Alice mightn't be able to do all the exciting things she wanted to do with her at first - that, in fact, when she was born, Alice wouldn't even be able to walk.

"That's alright," declared my step-cousin, without much concern. "If she doesn't have any legs, I'll carry her!"

When I was in 5th grade, I told my best friend; Alicia (man, I hope she reads this), that I wanted to be the doctor that delivers babies when I grew up. She told me that I was stupid and couldn't do that because the baby would get confused when it came out about who its mom was because I’m a girl.

When I was pregnant a couple years ago, my 4 yr old daughter thought that I would explode when the baby was born. She was quite relieved to hear that it didn't work that way, though I didn't go into great detail about the way it really happens.

When i was younger I beleieved that white babies came out the "front end" and that black babies came out the "back End"

i use to think that babies came out of belly buttons...which is what most children though, but...my mother had this weight watchers key thing (the key to unlock your health or something like that). well, i thought that that key was to get my baby brother out of her stomach (she was pregnant with him at the time.) wow...i kept that key cause i thought that was funny.

I used to think that babies came out of a momma's belly button so every time my little sister and I played dolls, and one of the dolls had a baby we weould stick that baby doll under the shirt and like pull it out quickly so it looked as if it wasn't in the shirt and it actually came out of the dolls belly button.

I used to believe when I was really little that babies came out of my mom's belly button. I found out the REAL truth when I was 10.

When I was younger my mom told me that you can only have babies after you are married, so I always imagined her when she was getting married to my dad in this big church, after the guy said, "you may kiss the bride" They would kiss and then my mom would walk over near the wall where they had this big wooden table, and while she was still in her wedding dress, she would lay down and then the priest guy would come over and cut her stomach open and just take out a baby ( and the baby already had clothes on ) and then my mom told me that they staple her stomach back up so then I imagined the priest with this lil mini stapler stapling her stomach back up.....I can't believe I thought that!

I used to believe that babies came out of a woman's stomach, that the skin would just break and the baby would come out that way. I would stuff pillows and baby dolls up my shirt when I was little, and would act like they were coming out of my stomach when I "had them"

deborah

I used to believe that babies came out of the mother's thigh. I have no idea why.

Amberjack

when i was younger i thought that you came out flat when you were born. then the doctor "blew" you up to inflate you. and.... you know the thing you blow in to inflate a floatie? well i thought that wether he left that out or pushed it in determined the sex... man was i smart!

When I was about 3 years old, I asked my mother how I was born. She told me which body part came out first. I didn't have any clue exactly what it meant, but I knew that I must have been born in this order. When she was done I asked her "How did the doctor put me back together again?" I honestly believed that I was born in seprate pieces and was put together one limb my limb.

I used to belive that my mum went to a special store and picked my brother and i off a shelf and had the blow us up to make us alive.
