My 4 year old asked me where babies come from?

Question

Help.

Answer 1

Say it in a very complicated way, with scientific terms to the point where your little boy/girl won't understand what you said but might be satisfied.

Answer 2

Don't you just love their questions lol.  I was ok until i got pregnant this time then i got the "how are babies made" and "where do they come from" and "how do they get out" lol.  My boys watch baby story with me as well as special delivery and bringing home baby so they now understand that I go through a lot of pain to push them out and that they come out of my v****a and that until they are born they are in my uterus.  I have explained that when they get older they will learn many more details but that right now the details might be to much for them to comprehend and they seem ok with that.  My soon to be 6 year old has asked me if it involves a p***s and i said yes and he said "ok I was wondering what all this thing was for" lol because he gets the morning erections and stuff so he is trying to figure things out.  I told him that in a couple of years we would talk more but if he has specific questions about things to ask me.  He has watched a special on DIscovery health though that showed the sperm and egg forming into a baby.

Answer 3

i told my 3 year old that they come from toys r us and there is a pink door for girls and a blue door for boys and you can pick which baby you want obviously ill tell him the truth but not yet he's too young and innocent and then you keep getting asked why why why

Answer 4

They grow inside a mummy's tummy. Why do you need help with this? No four year old needs full biological details, just a simple age appropriate answer.

Answer 5

My  4 1/2 year old stepson asked me this question when I gave birth four months ago. I told him that it takes a Mommy and a Daddy to make a baby. The baby grows inside the Mommy's belly and then when it's time, they all go to the hospital and the doctor takes it out. I thought that was a pretty sufficient answer for a four year old until he said, "Yeah, I know... but HOW do they make it?"

Answer 6

So tell her where babies come from.

Answer 7

My nearly 4 year old seemed content with 'they come from mummys tummy' he didnt seem to ask 'how did they get there'    however my mates son asked 'did mummy eat the baby and then poo it out?'  which was a little odd...

U think hes/shes mature enough to no then i dont see any problem in telling him/her

Answer 8

when my cousin I asked me this I asked her where she thought they came from and she came up with a whacked up answer and never mentioned it to me again, it was quite funny.

Answer 9

From a mommy and a daddy.

Answer 10

Don't lie or shelter the little one to much. Tell them the truth in bits. Simple answers are normally fine for them at that age. You tell them they come from a mommy and a daddy. Mommy grows the baby in her tummy. Find a site with good pictures of the baby in there. They are normally good with that and get bored fast so they move onto something else.
