I'm a 90's kid, so probably TV. :)</p> <p>I've always told my niece that daddies give mommies a shot of special juice when they're ready for a baby, and then the baby grows. This isn't completely a lie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-222038 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 22:12:01 +0000 daniellemybelle 222038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard a little one (3 or 4) ask his pregnant mom in Target, "How did you get the baby in your tummy?" She responded, "I swallowed a seed and drank a lot of water, and your little brother grew!" Um... haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-221787 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 11:30:44 +0000 808love 221787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: me too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-220527 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:46:50 +0000 Boogs 220527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Cowgirl: Lol for the longest time I did, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-220137 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 10:00:18 +0000 mrsjyw 220137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dont remember asking, but I do remember believing that if a married couple went to sleep next to each other and wanted a baby, they got one.</p> <p>Oh how simple a child's mind is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-220135 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:57:50 +0000 Alivoo01 220135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think I ever asked... Then again, my parents never gave me the sex talk either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219709 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:11:54 +0000 Grace 219709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was around 4 and asked. My mom gave me the clinical explaination (no special hugs or anything). I remember being so grossed out. Also, there was definitely a time in elementary school where I was sure she had lied to me and that couldn't have been the truth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219612 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 21:47:44 +0000 CarrieLouWho 219612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom said the cabbage patch :) Which explains my childhood love of cabbage patch kids and adopting them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219483 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:48:36 +0000 jedeve 219483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought that a man and a woman just had to lay in the same bed. Then my cousin told me the details. I told my parents she was lying. They told my sisters to go upstairs. Then they explained it as a "special hug." I was like, that is NOT a hug! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219288 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:49:49 +0000 Andrea 219288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think I asked but I got the sex talk at 10 when I came home spouting some stuff about sperm. My mom had to set me straight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219267 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:45:41 +0000 Sweet T 219267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: hahaha that is so cute!!</p> <p>I never asked and I never got the talk either. I just knew. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219252 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:41:49 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 219252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: me, too! i totally believed it, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219159 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:10:42 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 219159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember ever asking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219134 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:04:55 +0000 skibobrown 219134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom taught me the full details of how babies are made when she was pregnant with my sister. I was just about to turn 2 when she was born. So pretty much, I always knew where babies come from. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219107 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:56:24 +0000 lovehoneybee 219107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Yeah, and for the rest of the visit was telling the rest of the family that I ate the baby....my brother told me I should have told him I only ate it because I wasn't hungry enough to eat him. My SIL was mortified, but I'm still laughing about it, and probably will be for years. It's going in the baby book somewhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219091 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:51:25 +0000 Rubies 219091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: LOL!!!! Oh, poor kid must have been terrified that you had eaten a baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219074 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:44:35 +0000 lovehoneybee 219074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never asked. My parents never told me anything about sex, like ever. And my school taught abstinence only. I'm amazed I wasn't a teen mom. </p> <p>Kind of off topic, but kind of not: on Father's Day we were visiting with my in-laws, and my BIL, SIL and two nephews (8 and 5) were there. My SIL and BIL had been talking to the 5 year old about me having a baby, and so when he ran up to hug me, SIL told him "Remember to be gentle because Auntie Sarah has a baby in her tummy!" and poor Caden puts his hands on my stomach, looks up at me with wide, confused, slightly accusing eyes and asks "Why did you eat it???" </p> <p>Which of course made perfect sense to him to ask, since when he eats food it goes to his tummy, so I must have had to eat the baby for it to get into my tummy...it was so unexpected I couldn't react but to laugh, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-219063 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:39:07 +0000 sslm 219063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly, I am not sure that I ever asked! I feel like I just knew, but I am not sure I was that smart! I'll have to ask my mom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218982 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:02:12 +0000 Boogs 218982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The answer I got was that they came out of belly buttons! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218928 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:40:51 +0000 BoogieBea 218928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I was quite young when she started telling me that, so I did believe her. I remember feeling very grateful that she took me in. I don't remember when I figured out that it was a lie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218921 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:35:15 +0000 mrbee 218921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BoogieBea: Haha, did you believe her?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218918 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:33:02 +0000 BoogieBea 218918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom dodged the question entirely. She told me she found me in a garbage can. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218917 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:30:01 +0000 mrbee 218917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Somehow I just knew... not sure how. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218912 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:25:37 +0000 BananaPancakes 218912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was raised on a farm. I didn't have to ask. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218839 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 16:25:40 +0000 banana 218839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My best friend's 4 year old daughter asked me how I got a baby in my tummy. My BFF answered "Auntie and Uncle love each other soooo much that God blessed them with a baby!" Then her daughter said "Well, I love Daddy sooooo much too. Will I have a baby?" uhhhh... that explanation didn't over too well... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-babies-come-from#post-218837 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 16:23:10 +0000 Rubies 218837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you remember asking this question?</p> <p>I do. I was 4 years old and I asked my mom from where I came. She told me that she prayed really hard for a baby girl and one day she got one! </p>
