I used to believe you ordered babies from Montgomery Ward catalog. My best friend's mother had a baby, so our family went over to see them. While there, I asked my mother if she would order us a baby from the catalog. I couldn't understand why everyone was laughing at me.

I always thought that after a couple has married and wanted children they would have to kiss eachother for a very long time untill they felt a little seed from the father go through the mother then the mother would have to swallow the seed to have the baby. Then after 9 months the mothers stomach would just blow up and pop comes out the baby. Thank God that i learned about Sex 101 when i was 9!

when i was young and far from the concept of babies, i arrived at my own conclusion and even explained to my mom -" in my opinion there must be something in the wedding neckband(in hindu culture we use the neckband instead of the ring) which actually causes the woman to bear babies. otherwise why on earth would woman become pregnant only after they are born ".
my mom just laughed diminishing my enthusiasm to publish my findings!

When i was little i believed that a mommy and daddy went to Wal-mart (my parents loved that store) and they picked out the one they liked,put it in layaway and nine months later it was ready to be picked up! i still have no clue where that came from

When I was little, I used to think a man got a woman pregnant just by kissing her. I remember watching tv and seeing a woman and man kissing and thinking, "Well, she's gonna have a baby!"

When my mother was pregnant with my little sister (I was 5) I thought the "baby inside of Mommy" was a little doll sized version of a 5 year old kid and my mother's swollen belly was a little two story doll house inside with wallpaper and doll furniture and the whole bit.

When I was very young, I used to believe that women had girl babies, and men had boy babies. I mentioned that to my mom one day, and she promptly gave me "the talk" and pulled out a book about sex and pregnancy.

I used to believe that when I was in my mom's stomic, there was a flashlight, picture of my mom, and a blanket already in there.

As a kid I believed that the baby either had to originally be in the mom or the dad, and I believed that my mom just wouldn't tell me which one because it was a big secret. I decided that it was the sperm that was to become the baby because it could already move, and mom wouldn't admit to that because she was jealous that dad had the baby first.

I used to believe that all girls had a small baby in their tummy just waiting until they got married where it would begin to grow and eventually be born. The reality is much more fun!!

I used to believe that when Men and Women went to bed together they would only ever take their tops off - never their trousers or skirts!

when i was little my grandad told me that all babies were bought at shops.
so one time we were on the bus and he pointed to a shop with a child in the window,( which was most probably a toy shop ) and then he said "we bought you there " i totally believed him and told all my mates at kindy.

My dad told me that my grandpa's large stomach was because he was pregnant. But I knew this to be wrong because grampy was deaf so how could he hear the baby coming?

When I was about six a quizzed my brother amount baby production. His reply was that when you get married, the mum just gets pregnant. When I asked him how the 'getting pregnant' was done, he said it just happened! So then I asked him how the baby came out. He said that the doctors slice the mum's tummy open, pull the baby out, then stitch her up again. I was amazed than my mum's tummy was cut open so many times! (five kids all up)
