My daughter’s pre-school teacher read the class a book about childbirth. They learned that some babies are pushed out and some are cut of a mommy’s belly. My daughter asked how she can out and I showed her my C-section scar. Then, she asked where babies are pushed out of– your belly? Your hand?
I can’t let my daughter think babies are pushed out of your back or hand, so I told her the truth.
She was bewildered and replied, “That’s gross.”
Would you have told your kid the truth or made something up?
Lesson learned from this post: Kids are going to ask questions you’re not prepared for, so prepare!
