Evan is very interested in knowing how babies get into my tummy. He will ask once every few weeks. We don't make up stories but just leave bits out. He knows it takes both a Mum & Dad etc but we just say that we are special & when he is a little older we will explain it all for him.
He asked again tonight & I really want to explain it to him seems he is so interested. So Tonight I said that I have special eggs & Dad has sperm ( He knows that that sperm is in his testicals, lol asked what thoses were for aggggeeeessss ago) and that when the 2 mix together it makes a baby. They he asked but how does it get in my tummy, do you have to get connected? I said yeah kinda, It happens when we love each other. To which he replied, so when you kiss? I replied that that was part of it & left it at that. But I can tell he would be thinking it over for the next couple of days & he will ask again.
So how do you explain sex to a 5 yr old?
I would like my kids to have a healthy idea and respect for Sex so don't want to make out like its naughy or dirty. So I would like to answer his question honestly. I would really love (wishfull thinking I am sure) to be able to have an open & honest relationship with all my kids & have them be comfortable to ask & tell me anything regardless of their age. So I think its only fair that I return the favour to them & answer any questions as honestly as I can. But Iam just having a little trouble figuring out the best way to talk about sex.
I do plan on saying that we "make Love" rather then Sex as to me, they are 2 different things. I haven;t had "sex" with DH since we first got together really. We make Lurvvvv lol corny I know.
