So, as a mother, I really am not looking forward to having to discuss s.e.x. with my son. I'm not bothered about it, or embarrassed. I'm just expected that conversation later on....
He knows the differences in boys bodies & girls bodies. He knows the right names for everything.
So like I said, just waiting for the whole conversation to happen.
BUT Out of left field last night, I get ...
"Mommy, if girls have boy babies, do boys have girl babies?"
Wow.... then I think, that's actually some good logic for a 5 year old....
Then I think "Oh crap!" How do I answer this?????
Out of no where, I come up with "girls have a special belly for babies, and boys don't have that belly". he looks at me like I have ten heads and says "No Mommy, you're lying!!!"
I offered to get Nana & Pop Pops input, and had him call them. He should believe them....
Nana gets the same question....
"Nana, if girls have boy babies, do boys have girl babies?"
After getting her laughter under control , and me taking the phone to tell her that yes he is very serious about this, she responds.
"No Chris, boys don't have the right bellies for babies"
After he laughs for a second,, he looks at me and looks at the phone and we get
"NANA YOU'RE LYING!!!!!!!!!!!! "
I guess the talk will be saved for another day... thankfully! and just maybe he can have that discussion with Nana...
