20 Something Moms
I was watching that show "Bringing home baby" and there was a women on the tv giving birth. Well I was up cleaning so I didnt realize at the moment what was on the screen. Well my 7 yr old DD ask me " Mommy is the baby coming out of her butt"!! If you think thats bad wait till you hear what I said......"NO, babies come out of a women's WHO WHO", OMG I couldnt believe what I said. My 2 daughters call their girl parts a WHO WHO. I dont know where they got it from, but thats what they call it. Now mind you this is a convo that I needed time to prepare for. I had no time to think about what to say. She just layed that question on me so fast. She turned back to the tv as I turned the channel and hasnt said anything about it to me.. P.S. she sat there for like 5 minutes and looked like she was thinking really hard???? So how bad is what I said???? I feel horrid!!!! And should I say anything else to her about it or just let it go????

Always answer honestly but age appropriate, which you did. You WANT her to ask you and to answer honest, or she'll ask someone else and may not get the best answers -
My daughter asked me how the baby came out just a couple months ago and she's only 4. Don't worry, just don't make it seem like a huge awful thing. Instead treat it like what it is. A simple fact of life. If she has more questions answer them honestly. I wasn't prepared either and wasn't sure how she'd react but I knew that she couldn't go her whole life thinking the baby comes out of the belly button. Lol!

you were honest, nothing to hide. She was going to find out one day.

My dd was 4 and was in her room she yelled why do I have a hole ... I said so you can have babys ... -
Dd6 has known for a while now the basics of how a baby grows and comes out. She learned kinda early since she's the oldest of 4 (just talking about the ones I birthed). She and all of her sisters, minus the baby, also all know the proper names for their anatomy. I personally am uncomfortable with the word vagina, but I don't see any sense in ridiculous names for body parts. Jmho. -
he asked the doctor not to let his brother get poop on him.
the doctor laughed and said okay.
he is a nut.
