Pregnancy Advice from a First-Grader
So, I finally told my first grade students that I am pregnant. It was getting hard to hide it! Now it's all they want to talk about. I thought you all might enjoy this advice that I got from one of my first-graders this week...
One of my students said, out of the blue, "Mrs. H, I've been meaning to tell you something."
"What's that,?" I asked.
"Don't you drink too much water. Don't you drink too much water or you and that baby will bust wide open. My Auntie Holly was pregnant, and she drank too much water, and she busted."
It was so hilarious I couldn't even respond! I know he heard about her water breaking, and this is what he took from that. My parapro and I laughed so hard, I thought I might "bust." Kids are so funny!

OMG, too funny! Poor kid, probably thought his aunt exploded!
I had a 5th grader tell me I needed to stop drinking my morning coffee. When her mommy was pregnant she wasn't allowed to drink coffee because it wasn't good for the baby so I needed to stop for my baby's sake. I explained I was drinking hot chocolate while internally cracking up!

That's hilarious. I'm telling my 1st graders tomorrow. A 2nd grader I tutor who knows has given me two pieces of advice:
1. "I hope you don't have a boy. Boys have really big poops."
2. "If you have a boy, I need to teach him the recess games. You'll just mess them up."
He also told me I wasn't "that fat" yet. Good thing he's cute...
When one of my first graders found out I was pregnant, she took one look at me, shook her head and said, "oh, it's gonna really hurt when they cut you open and pull the baby out...it's gonna really hurt..."
Gee, thanks...
