telling students...

I work in 3 different buildings, so throughout the week I told each class I was having a baby this summer. I got a lot of cute comments and congrats...but one in particular still has me laughing. The girl (4th grade) said "I told my Mom I thought I saw a 'baby launch' like she has" haha. Her mom is also pregnant, but due 2 weeks before me. Too cute! 

Have you gotten any cute responses in telling students/colleagues or family?

Re: telling students...

  • I am already nervous about telling the families I work with!  Glad it went well!

  • Omg that's so cute!

    I haven't really had any responses like that, just the typical congratulations and a little bit of crying, but I did have a few funny/strange responses.

    My mom said "Good Job!", and quickly realized how silly that sounded. ;)

    DH's grandpa asked me "So did you miss your period?" He has no filter and is going a little senile. Lol

  • That's cute! My students have slowly been finding out. I teach high school and most of my students are boys, so I felt weird making a formal announcement. I have a feeling that I will have some questions on Monday, though.
  • What is a "baby launch"? This girl sounds adorable!

  • I've heard of a book called "My Teacher is Having a Baby".  I was planning to use that to tell my class whenever it may be.  I guess whether or not you'd use it depends on the age of your students, though.

    I used it with my 3rd graders.  Only one of them wanted to know where babies came from. I told him to ask his mom.
