getting pregnant

I thought a woman becomes pregnant once she hugs a male and her hands move in all directions over a male's back!

Later on , I got advanced , and thought it was by the lying down on the same bed and covering bodies with the same white blanket....
lol!

I used to believe that marriage was the key to having babies. The angels in heaven decided how many children a couple would have. Some had nine some had one. But getting married was the key.

I used to believe that the lint in belly buttons was the material you had to make babies. I was scared to clean it out because I thought that then I couldn't have children.

As a child, I believed that you get pregnant by chance. Just like you get a pimple, you get pregnant. So I used to ask my Mom why she doesn't get pregnant.

I used to believe that a female could get pregnant just by sleeping in the same bed as a male. I didnt realise that there was actually anything else involved!

When i was little my mom told me that God put a baby in mommys tummy, so i thought that you would have to pray to God and ask him for a baby and he would put one in there... . i always wondered what daddy had to do with it.

I used to believe that... you get pregnant by getting into contact with a guy's saliva. Especially by sharing cutlery!

I knew it had to be something pretty disgusting to get a baby. I thought the way to get pregnant was the woman and man had to take off their clothes, get into the same bed and cover themselves up with a blanket. They went to sleep and in the morning, the woman was pregnant. To me, that was gross enough.

When my mom told me the actual way a woman got pregnant, I was so horrified at the perverseness of the idea that I cut her off mid-explanation, saying, "Okay, okay!!" and ran away.

I have two kids now, by the way.

When I asked where babies came from (age 5) I was initially given a silly explanation (the cabbage patch one I think), but demanded a proper answer, so I was given a detailed and truthful scientific description and also shown a documentary on the whole process that my parents taped specially for me. I knew there had to be a Mummy and a Daddy who were married and that they had to love each other. I knew they had to cuddle and kiss and the man had to put his 'dinky' inside her 'muff' - this whole process seemed very boring to me. Then I thought the man peed in her and his pee had special tadpoles in that were much smaller than the tadpoles we had at school and were specially to make babies.

Luckily I knew when, where and how they came out, and that it was very painful and messy.

But when I questioned why there were stories in newspapers about teenage girls being pregnant (this is in the 1980's when the British teen-pregnancy problem began) I was told it was because 'there was something wrong with them' and I thought it must be a terrible disease!

However, after my sister was born when I was 7 I became very knowledgable on the whole matter and educated all my classmates. I'll never forget the day a friend looked really pleased with herself and said 'Think of what Mary and Joseph had to do to get Jesus!' and I pointed out to her that Mary was a virgin and Jesus was put there by God. She was laughed at a lot for that.

When I was young I thought two people had to just see eachother naked to get the woman pregnant. Not so. I was terrified when my male best friend walked in on me changing. [I was 6.]

I used to believe that the food that a woman ate grew into a baby.

Until I was almost 13 years old, I had no idea how pregnency tests worked...I first believed that they worked simply by the woman putting her thumb on the end oppisite of the stick part...I knew that couldn't be it, because the stick had to be there for some reason..so then I thought the woman stuck the stick part up her vagina..

When I was little, I used to believe that when a mother and a father wanted to have a child, they would pray to God for hours and hours while kissing each other.

Hmmmm...

I used to believe that babies just happened to big people. My mom is a single mom, so when i asked her how she got me she told me she wasn't too sure. I asked my grandma and she told me if you were a good person and the Lord sees it fit you'll just have one. I told her I didn't believe me she told me, "Look at the Virgin Mary". The things lil kids go through!

i always thought that when a woman ate beans she got pregnant and the man who bought the beans for her was named the father of the child.
