| When Lexi asked me that question I told her the truth. I showed her the C-section scar from when I had her and told her that the Dr will cut me there and take the baby out. I had it easy. But then the whole will it hurt thing came in and I had to tell her about them giving me a shot in my back that makes me num. LOL.. Hope you figure something out to tell him. |

She told him that she had to push him out kind of like pooping and of course then his mind was focused on mommy having to poop out his brother  |

| I've heard that question before. Kylie knows she came directly out of my tummy because she was born via c/section. When she realized Megan wasn't born that way she said "well where did she come out at then? I just replied with "down below" because she caught me off guard. She freaked out and asked if she peed would a kid come out of her down there too.   I told her to go ask her father.   |

| This might be a little bit advanced for his age, but I have a site that goes into detail in pictures. The captions are in German, but what's going on is unmistakable, and you could narrate for him. WARNING: This website goes into detail! http://www.planetdan.net/pics/babies/ |

Umm...Ed...not sure I want to go that far into detail! We actually have a magazine that shows the mommy pushing the baby out, which I am fine with him looking at. I know he'll say "ooooo, gross!!!". It shows how the baby grows each month , then the delivery. He hasn't asked the "how do you make babies?" question yet so I wont answer it until he asks it.  We'll save that one for a later date! |

| Oh, Jennie, I could have remained blissfully ignorant of that answer for longer than I was allowed to. I am the oldest and I was 7 when my little brother (age 3) asked the question. We all got the talk. I remember thinking, "Ewwww, Gross!!" |

| Personally, at 4, I think he's old enough to know the truth....but then there's always the danger that he'll go around telling everyone he meets where babies come from. |

| how about that baby story channel? sometimes it shows just enough.. |

i was obsessed with those shows when i was pg, and so my kids had to watch that if I was watching it... so they know. They also think the "fur" keeps the baby "warm".... |
