When i was little (of course thats how all of these start out) i thought that if pregnat woman went poop then when they pushed for the poop to come out, the baby's head would stick out. Then whenever the woman wiped she would stick the head back in!

I used to believe that children were born when a boys and girls were the same age and they hugged. When my boyfriend tried to hug me i explained to him and he told me the truth. I was a misguided child and i was 12 at the age too!

My young (14years??) nephew thought that fertilised chicken eggs were made by the rooster going around and sitting on the eggs and "injecting" them. My farm-wise son put him right, however he insisted for some time that his mother had agreed this "was probably how it happened". I think that might be a lesson in listening to your children properly.

I used to think that if a woman wanted a baby, all she had to do was take a special pill: pink for girls, blue for boys. After careful thought, I decided that the father's role was to provide moral support.

When I was around 4 or 5, I thought babies came from seeds that daddies put in mommies bellybuttons.

I used to believe that the girl peed out of her, as I used to call it "bachina." So, to have a baby I thought that both the boy and the girl had to have to go to the batroom at the same time. Then, they would pee.

I used to believe that you got married and then the girls just had babies. But you could only have a baby if you were married. I'm 11 and recently found out it's more complicated.

At age 6 I used to believe that once a man and woman married, slipping the ring on her finger would trigger the baby to start growing. I remember telling one of my best friends this. Once I married, with a slip of the ring, 3 weeks later, the baby started growing!

i used to believe that if you wanted to have a baby, you could choose any person you wanted to have it with, and all you had to do is go to the market where they'd have jars of sperm from differ people and buy it and drink it. I remember thinking that i was going to buy J.T.T's sperm when i was older (J.T.T is Jonathan Taylor Thomas...yes i know)

when i was a kid i used to think that when women had gotten pregnant they would get fat and then one day when they sat down to go to the bathroom the aby would fall out. i even thought that when somebabys got flushed they turned into turtles. i also couldent grasp the concept that only women got pregnant( i was only 5 gimme a break) so everytime i took a shit i would check just to make sure it wasnt a baby

In about third grade, my best friend "taught" me about the birds and the bees. I learned the typical procedure, up until the end when the man "pees" in the woman. Apparently, she knew something came out of his penis, just not what exactly. I thought this was true for the longest time until it finally dawned on me that pee is a waste product, and why would you purposely expel your waste into someone else?

When I was little, my mom saw me playing with myself (innocently, of course) and said, "Don't do that. That's how babies are made." After that, I stopped, because I didn't want to get pregnant. ;) For awhile I was telling people that it was true: men could give birth, too!

There comes a time in every childs' life where they ask,
"Where do babies come from?"
When I asked this to my mother, she told me that babies come from from their mommy's tummy, where they get all the food and nutrience that they needed to grow. So here's what I saw in my mind's eye:
A woman with a large bulge in her stomach. In that bulge there was a baby (fully clothed) standing up and kicking at the sides of the mother's 'tummy'. Like a robot, the mother eats her dinner. The food falls from her throat and rains onto the baby with no signs of being chewed up. From there the baby eats it.
You must understand that I didn't know how the digestive system worked then either. To me it was PERFECTLY logical to have food raining onto an unborn child.

I believed (thanks to my mum) that babies grew on "baby trees" and simply 'fell off' when they were ripe!!!
