Where Babies Come From

[moroccan]

A teenage girl comes home from school and asks her mother. "Is it true what Rita just told me? Babies come out of the same place where boys put their penises?"

"Yes, dear," replies her mother, pleased that the subject had finally come up and she wouldn't have to explain it to her daughter.

"But then when I have a baby," the teenager pondered, "won't it knock all my teeth out?"

What is the right answer? The cabbage patch? The stork? A watermelon seed?
Being pregnant brings to light a whole new series of problems in life: advice from strangers, a new wardrobe, and questions from young children, not always your own.
As the mother of three very inquisitive children, I have answered this questions nearly incessantly for the last 6 years. The key to answering this question is to find out what exactly the child wants to know and answering them in an age appropriate manner. For example, while the words of the three year old and the six year old might be the same but they might really have different questions.

Ask a couple of questions of your child to determine what their level of understanding is about the whole pregnancy thing and what they really would like to know. When answering your child you really need to be aware of the words you use. If you tell a child that you have a baby in your belly rather than uterus, you are going to have a whole new set of questions. The questions will probably include where does your food go while the baby is there, and does the baby eat your food too?
