That's basically what we've been doing, we've always talked openly about it. I was pregnant when the older 2 were 4 and 5 so naturally they asked questions which we answered. I bought books for them to read, which they still do now. THey know about puberty and body changes. Basically they know everything, or rather we've discussed everything except sex. They hear the word sex and have asked what it means, so they know it's what you do to have a baby but I jsut haven't explained the hows. Does that make sense?
One day my sister and BIL took DD (4yo at the time) to the footy, she was telling a friend of theirs that I was pregnant. He asked her how the baby got in there so DD gave him a rundown on the egg and sperm and how the baby grows in the womb and comes out the cervix......The friend later said to my sister that he is never going to ask that question to a kid again
