reproduction

I never believed in a stork, but I never ever asked my parents (or anyone else either). I just used to think that when a man and woman marry that God just put the baby into the mom. It was magic. Or so I thought.

When I was little I used to believe that when you were born you already had a VERY tiny baby growing inside of you.Every year that baby got a teeny bit bigger. When you wanted the baby to come out you just went to the doctors and they would cut open your stomach and take it out. I believed that all the way up till 4th grade.

When I was a child I went to a boarding school for the blind. We guys were trying to figure out where babies came from (with no knowledge of the female anatomy). We concluded that the husband put the sperm in his wife's anus and the baby came out her naval.

Boy was I surprised when I got older.

I always thought that all girls were born with a little tiny baby in there stomaches, and as they grow, the baby would grow with them and the girls wolud eventually get pregnent.
I've been telling my twin sister this for the longest time.

My ex-boyfriend (who was in his 20's) thought just because he had twin brothers, it was without question he would father only twins. And he thought pregnancy would happen every time a man and woman had sex. Never heard of a condom or the birth control pill, obviously.

Wow missed that bullet

When I was younger I believed that the moment before a person was born, they would appear before a tall desk with a thick book on it. The book was the story of that person's life, and they had to choose to read their life, or live it. The stillborn babies chose to read about it and the babys that were born chose to live their life is my logic. hahaha

When I was in year 4 at school we where learning about Egypt and I’ll never forget when another boy told the teacher that in Egypt a baby was born every 26 seconds. I was totally amazed by this and I actually believed that all the women gave birth every 26 seconds. I was more worried about the thought of having to pick so many different names for that many children.

When I was younger, I used to think that when little girls were born, a TEENY TINY baby was already in their tummy and would grow up and come out when she was married or in her 20's.

Well, When I was younger, I went to a Catholic school. The way we learned sex education was to read it from a book. The book said that a woman got pregnant through an opening in her body, but they didn't say where....so I thought that there was a hole in every woman's side where they got pregnant.

I had asked my Mom where babies came from. She responded that a Mom and a Dad made a baby out of an egg. I wasn't able to pry the facts out of her for months; in the mean time I assumed that mom and dad went to an Egg Factory and assembled eggs (which closely represented Mr. Potato Heads) together... Daddy added his pieces, and Mommy added hers...

I used to believe that all babies were the result of immaculate conception, and that you were either chosen by the divine to have children, or you weren't.

I thought your parents CHOOSE if you're a boy or a girl when they have you (or at least the mother chose). I learned this was wrong when I asked my mom why she made me a boy instead of a girl.

I used to think sterilised humans were referred to as neutered, in the same way as animals.

when i was younger i believed that no one got pregnant from having sex for the first time and that coca cola was a cheap and efficient spermicide. needless to say i was far too young to try out these ideas and the back copies of Jackie magazine in our local library soon straightened me out. thank the lord.

One day when I was very little, I asked my dad the dreaded question "where did I come from?" He told me I was born out of a baked bean tin and they picked me up in the supermarket. It took me a long time to figure out that bake bean tins didnt come in that size.

I knew where babies came from, but I didn't know how they got there, so I just assumed at age 9 that I had the baby all ready inside me until it was time for it to come out.

I asked my mother where I came from, and was told she'd gotten me in Macy's basement. Every time she went shopping downtown, I asked her to bring me back a baby sister. She never did.

When I was in first grade my babysitter had a son a couple years younger than I was and we were great friends. One day his aunt brought his newborn cousin over to visit. We both loved the baby and decided we should make one of our own. We climbed in to bed (fully clothed) got under the covers and hugged each other. I also made him kiss me on the cheek to make sure we would really make a baby. We decided we would have a little boy and name him the same name as his little cousin. I was crushed when my best friend told me I couldn't really be pregnant because I didn't have my period yet at school the next day.

When I was about 5 I had no idea how babies were born and assumed that they just appeared out of thin air. I confused the hell out of my parents by asking what would happen if a baby was born in our kitchen while Mum was washing up.
