(Book) suggestions for very inquistive 4.5y old dd about 'the facts of life'... :)

[MrsBigD]

I'm sure this has been done to death but can I find it here on mh? nope... I'm just useless when it comes to searches.

We think it's time to explain a few things to DD (4.5) after her springing the following on me:

DD: When I was a baby I was in your tummy mama?
Me: yes dd
Dd: How?
Me: Papa gave Mama a loving seed to grow
DD: How did it get into you tummy? Did it hurt? How did I come out?

First question I sort of skimmed over , second one: no, third one 'a little bit when the doctor helped mama get you out' and showed her my c-section scar. She was fine with that, but I've got visions of her wanting to get more specific answers soon.

Any recommendations for what to read/say/do?

Cheers

mummy laid an egg

And I would give her honest brief specific answers to any questions as and when she asks them but you don't have to give her chapter and verse each time imo.

thanks for the link will have a look at it.

DD knows the difference between boys and gilrs as she has a little brother. Would it be too much info to say that papa's outy bit (dd's terms for it) joins up with mama's inny bit because they love each other very much? Or is that something for a bit later? don't think my parents ever had 'that chat' with me so totally on the limp here
