giving birth

When I was about 4 or 5 I used to think that babies came out of your belly button!

I used to believe that babies were born through a hole in the mother's belly button. Eventually I found out the truth and got on with the harsh reality of being 29.

I always believed that babies came out of womens bottoms. Don't ask me why!?

When my mom got pregnant with my (first) younger brother, I asked her how the baby was gonna get out of her stomach. She said 'God will make a door for him'. So I pictured a little trap door opening in her tummy. It didn't help the illusion much when she had to have a c-section.......and I saw the stitches from the 'door'.

When I was very little I used to believe that when babies were born they came out of the mother's stomach.

I was thinking that the birth of child occurs by piercing out the abdomen of women

Till when I was in my 12th grade, I used to believe that babies come from the butt! And there was a big fight between my friend and me regarding this, until he finally took me to a classmate of mine (girl) and she explained me with blushes. I too had to accept with much embarrasment.

I used to belive that Child birth is thru the Ass. This belief was still upto my age of 15.

Until I was 10 I believed that all babies were born by Caeserean section. My neighbor's mom told me otherwise and I was mortified! I ran home to tell my mother this disgusting story, which she, to my horror, confirmed - I had actually come out of her vagina, ewwwww!

I used to believe that giving birth must be a lot like pooping - you take a deep breath, push real hard, and something comes out!

I used to believe that babies came from the mother's belly button. This when I was 17 yet. Got it from "King's Row," a book by Henry Bellaman in which the kid characters talked about where babies came from. And I believed it!

when I was about 6 or 7, a frienf of mine told me that she knew how children werw born....as she had understood from her mother (who is a doctor!!!!), the doctor would enlarge the women`s belly button, take out all the pop inside her and then bring out the baby! and i believed her!!!!!

A friend of mine believed that children were born out by the ass.

When I was around 12-13 years old (old enough to know better) and discussing childbirth with my friend and her older teenage sisters, I revealed that all babies were delivered by cutting open the stomach. I was astounding to learn that babies were usually delivered vaginally. I was totally revolted by the idea, and my friend and the others teased me terribly because of my ignorance and embarrassment.

My Mother was pretty buxom when I was a child, and as was the fashion in the 50's, she wore low cut summer dresses that displayed a generous display of cleavage.

I asked often "where did I come from", all the while being pretty sure that babies originate in their mummies tummies, since an Aunt was pregnant.

How did they get out, was the question?

The little engineer in me for lack of better data, surmised that they must emerge kicking and screaming one day, from that bottomless cleavage.

One day my son (10) excitedly told me that he knew where babies come from. I was anxious to hear his response and was tickled when he told me that babies come out of there Mom's butts.

Until maybe I was in grade 6, I used to believe that babies "came out" through the anus. I think about it sometimes & laugh at my stupidity.

I used to believe that ALL babies were born via C-section...It never crossed my mind that babies would come out of the same place that urine comes out.
