Funny story about DS1, birds & bees

On the way to school today we drove by the hospital. DS1 has a very good visual memory and even though this isn't the view of the hospital he normally sees, he recognized the building and asked if that's where he an F were born. After talking about that for a little bit he asked, "How do babies get out of their Momma's tummies?"

He still doesn't know I'm pregnant yet, but I figured I better tell him the truth about how it all works since he'll be experiencing it with us soon. So I answered honestly, usually the baby comes out the Momma's vagina. "Are you serious?!" DH, who happened to be in the car today,  and I had a hard time not giggling. "Yes, dear, I'm telling you the truth." "Are you serious?!" So I decided to also explain to him that's why God designed Mommas to grow the babies and not Daddies. Could you imagine a baby coming out of your penis?

I'm sure he's traumatized for the day. I definitely didn't want to tell him about c-sections! Whew! That is not a conversation I was expecting to have this morning!!! Embarrassed

Good for you!  Although now I feel like a slacker - I told my DS that mommy would go to the hospital and the Dr would help take the baby out...

He also asked how the baby got there (in my belly)...I forget what I said because he came up with his own idea.  I work in a hospital with the babies, and he knows that.  So he decided that when I went to work they put a baby in my belly.  I tried to tell him that was not right, but he wouldn't listen.  I am afraid when I go back to work they are going to be waiting for another baby to come home!
