When I was a young boy - around 9 - I remember announcing seriously one day at the dinner table that when I grew up I would only be able to have 2 children. My mother asked me why and I replied "Because I only have 2 testicles".

I was not prepared for my parents reaction. They literally fell about laughing to the point where they were literally wiping tears from their eyes. I just sat there saying "What? What?"

Of course, I eventually got the explanation but it wasn't until some time later that I too saw the funny side.

I believed that humans and animals could have babies together and the mentally challenged kids at school were believed to be the dog-human babies

When I asked my mom where I came from, she told me I came from her tummy. I refused to believe that. Instead, I imagined a giant hospital room filled with babies. God put them there, and that's where your parents got you.

I used to think babies came from beer stores, and they rolled out on the rolly thing. I also used to think you grew up to be an animal, I always wanted to be a dog.

when i was really little, i used to live next to some people who had 5 kids, 4 boys and 1 girl. i thought that the sex of the baby was determined by whoever did the most work when the parents were having sex. later i found out that it had to do with chromosomes. *hehe*

I used to believe as a kid that when your Mum got pregnant, the baby grew in her body standing upright. eg: The baby's legs grew in the Mother's legs and it's arms grew in the mother's Arms.

What makes it worse, I used to think that the baby could see out of the mother's eyes and that's how it knew where it's home and family was.... lol

according to my young mind (until 10y/o?)A woman became pregnant by a men urinating in her during sex...phew, I'm glad that's NOT the way it works!

When i was a toddler, i would ask my mom and dad to buy a baby in the hospital. One day they come home and said to me, "they ran out of babies, they will make more later".

I used to believe that a man and a woman made babies by the man peeing in the woman.

Because on TV, couples slept together and then had babies, I figured something jumped through the air from the man to the woman. Consequently, on an overnight train trip I refused to go to sleep! That's how my Mom found out about my beliefs and "filled me in".

When I was little I thought that you became pregnant when you got married, but then I'd get really confused when I met people with kids who'd never been married, another thing that confused me was where I came from scince I was the seconed child in my family and I couldn't have come from the church like my sister

I thought wen u did it hard u had a boy. and wen u had sex soft u would have a girl.

when i was little i thought that when you have sex, a man sticks his willy up the womans minge and when he pulls his dick out and the baby hangs from the end of the mans willy.

When I was little, about 8 or 7 I used to beleive that when you were born, you had a baby inside you and as you grew so did the baby until you got old enough and then you had a baby. I believed thid until I was in Junior High and they showed us "rhe movie" that told us about our monthly cycles, but I still did'nt know how babies were concieved untill a few years later . I lived a very sheltered childhood!

I used to believe that in order for a couple to have a baby, they had to have sex exactly six times. So, for instance, a woman with three kids had only had sex 18 times!
