When I was younger, I used to believe that when babies were born, the doctors would untie the moms belly button, take the baby out, and tie her belly button back up.

When babies were born, I used to believe that the only way to tell if it was a boy or girl was to look at the ears. The girls had holes in their ears, the boys didn't.

When I noticed my mother's Cesarian scar and asked her about it she told me that was where the doctors cut her open to take me out but didn't tell me that wasn't how babies were usually born. I had also been told that it was once common for women to die during childbirth. Based on these pieces of information I decided that natural childbirth involved the baby clawing and chewing its way out of its mother, causing lots of damage to her and probably even killing her because it was just a baby and didn't know what it was doing, but this didn't often happen any more because doctors would almost always surgically remove the baby before it did that.

Until I was about 10 or 11, I thought babies were born out of belly buttons. I believed that was why pregnant women had such big belly buttons...so that it would be big enough for the baby to just pop out of when it was ready.

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 asked to see where the water broke in my sister's house days after she had her first child thinking a pipe burst somewhere in the house

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.

When I was little, my mother had kidney cancer so she had one of her kidneys taken out and had a long scar on the side of her stomach. For a long time I thought that the scar was from when I was born and that all babies were cut out of a woman's stomach. I asked her why she didn't have four scars (I have 3 siblings) on her stomach. She finally told me where babies really come from. I was horrified.

When I was very young, I used to believe that when babies were born, they came along with all of their initial baby clothes. I always pictured myself being born in a cute yellow dress, with a bunch of hangers of outfits in each hand!

I used to believe that when adults kissed when they were naked then babies were born. I also though the only way to deliver a baby was having your stomach cut open.

When I was little I believed that to get a baby out of the womb you had to cut a square in the woman's belly and lift it up like a jar lid and then take the baby out.

I used to believe that babies came out of belly buttons until I was told differently in my 9th grade health class.
