I agree with you friend Stacia...OMG - so so funny.<br /><br />I agree with you friend Stacia (facebook) - my mom read that book to my brother and I when we were young and she was preggers with my first little sister. That would have made me just a little older than Gabi at the time (Jenna was born a couple weeks after I turned 8). <br /><br />However, until you are ready for the conversation, Jenny's tactic of dealing with Natalie's question is simple, straightforward, and truthful, but I don't know if Gabi would accept that answer from you :) Get the book. It will make it lots easier.<br /><br />Still giggling about it all as I type . . .Great post.Karanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143256316671875324.post-40890507581807511702011-04-07T07:17:30.578-07:002011-04-07T07:17:30.578-07:00I recently had to have the talk with my 10 year ol...I recently had to have the talk with my 10 year old. She had just turned 9 at the time. Perhaps I waited too long on that one, but I don't remember having the talk with my mom until I was 10. I can't imagine trying to tell a 6 year old! My 8 year old still doesn't know. Good job on the diversions.

We are getting these questions all the time in our house lately. <br /><br />So my latest response was that the man and the woman do a "special cuddle" that only responsible adults do, and sometimes the woman gets pregnant and has a baby. That seemed to satisfy them. <br /><br />For now.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493268452074516009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143256316671875324.post-40972018355383884732011-04-05T21:06:01.832-07:002011-04-05T21:06:01.832-07:00Ha-ha-ha!

I explained it to them, in simple terms, and they understood. It was never brought up again after that until some idiot kids at my sons school decided to explain to ALL the kids how it was done. The way he described it was nasty. Nasty to the point I wonder where he heard it.

She knows you need a mom and dad and she knows the male/female parts and where the baby comes out from. But have not had to have the rest of the conversation yet. Sounds like you are doing well, though. As for the question about how the sperm gets to the mom - don't be afraid to tell her that she's not quite ready to know that kind of thing yet. I'm always telling Natalie that there are things she'll understand better a little later.<br /><br />Jen EssingtonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143256316671875324.post-6673793678605192002011-04-03T15:02:17.039-07:002011-04-03T15:02:17.039-07:00My son and I had a very similar conversation (also...My son and I had a very similar conversation (also in the car) recently. I bit the bullet and just told him the major details (but to be fair, I used to teach sex-ed, so I've had some practice at this).
