top belief!
When I was very small, I believed that babies were born with clothes on, and it was the clothing that told you whether or not you had a baby boy or a baby girl.
I used to believe that babies were born from a girl's belly button instead of...you know what. Because when I asked my mom where babies come from, thats what she told me so that's what I thought up until a few years ago and I'm 14 so ya...pretty embarassing!
I was about 8 months pregnant with my second child and was holding my 4-year-old son in my lap (what was left of it). He placed his hand on my huge tummy to feel the baby kick and he said, "When you come home from the hospital, will you be wearing a cast on your leg?" I was startled and said, "Honey, why would you ask me that?" He said, "Well, when they chop off your leg to squeeze the baby out, how will they get the leg back on?" Time for our "first talk"... at four year's old!!!

When my sister was born (I was 4) I believed that both my parents were breast feeding her. My mother gave milk and my father - tea.
I'll keep it short...
I thought that babies came out of their mothers belly buttons.
I have always believed that babies comes out of the ass....I thought that untill I was 12 years old.... I am now 16 and some how that subject is always popping up from time to time!
My dad used to tell me that when mom was pregnant with me, she used to eat noodle soup every night and she ate so much of it I was born with a noodle on my head. When I was little, I used to introduce myself saying, "Hi. My name is _____ and I was born with a noodle on my head!" It made sense - since babies came out of their mommy's tummy!
As a little girl I was convinced that babies had the choice of being born from their mummy's tummy buttons or their bottoms. I told everyone I had emerged from my mum's tummy button, and was devastated when I learned the truth!!
When I was about 6, I asked my Mum when people had babies, and she answered "when they get married". For quite some time after that I thought that babies appeared from nowhere the minute you were married - sex, pregnancy and childbirth were non-existent! Things appeared so much simpler in childhood!
My dad showed me the movie Alien when I was really little and I thought from then on that babies were born that way. Like, the mother's stomach got bigger and bigger until finally it ripped open and the baby came out. I didn't learn otherwise until one day I asked my mom why there were no scars on her tummy "from the baby bursting out"
when I was little I thought that a baby could come out of any of the following: regular way, the butt or your eye. EYE??? I must have been a troubled child!
When I was around 5 years old and learned that babies come from mothers, I wondered from where the baby pops out. I figured that is came out of the ass, because there is no way a baby could fit through the vagina!
When I was little 5,6,7ish I knew that babies were in the mother's stomach....
I didn't know how they came out. So I figured they put you to sleep(anethesia)then cut open your stomach took the baby out and sewed it back together. Then later I asked my mom: do they out you to sleep when the baby comes out?
She said "no" I WAS SO SCARED THAT they would cut open girl's stomachs just to get the baby out.... I am so glad my great aunt got me a visual dictonary a year or two later ;)!!!
I was a very modest little girl but knew where the babies came out. That wasnt nearly as horrifying to me as much as the thought that everyone saw me naked coming out. So I was of the belief that babies came out already clean & wrapped in a blanket, like, straight out of there! And I was so embarassed to find out I was indeed naked!!
that men had boy babies and women had girl babies

At an early age - 4 - I knew babies came from inside the mother. How they got out was a puzzle. I finally decided moms must have a zipper in their sides for this.
Some years later, I realized that was silly, and concluded there was only one logical place of exit...the butt.
Not until I was about 13 or so did I learn the truth in a school hygiene class. I still think zippers would be easier ;)

I was 3 when my younger sister was born. My mother had a ceserean (sp?) and showed me the scar/stitches from it. Naturally, this led me to believe that when a baby was ready to be born, it pushed it's way out of it's mother's stomach, ripping her skin on the way, and that's why it hurt so much. I believed this until I was about 10 and learned how babies are really born... probably almost as painful though ;)
when i was little i thought babies came out of your mouth because when a women was in labor "screaming" i thought it ment the baby was coming out.
well i thought ::for a good 10 years of my life:: sad to say that a girl only had two holes and that the baby came out of a new hole that formed right when you were about to have the baby. i always wanted to find that hole.
When my grandmother was pregnant with my uncle, a chicken flew into her window and crowed. This (according to my grandmother) is the reason why he was born with three toes on one foot. She said he was 'marked' by the chicken. Now I have my own daughter who at 2 months old began sticking her tongue out all the time. My mom says this is because I took her to a KISS concert when I was 7 months pregnant and she was 'marked' by Gene Simmons. Like mother, like daughter!!
