Out of the mouths etc.

A fortnight ago I told my Friday class I was expecting a baby.
Last Friday one of the boys ran in and wanted to know if I'd had it yet.

Umm... no. Not yet.

One of the girls was very indignant to find out that I was 15 weeks pregnant and I hadn't told them earlier. I tried to explain in kid friendly terms that losing a baby in the first few months is very common and that even at this stage 'being pregnant' is not the same as 'having a living baby at home with you'. She was quite perturbed by this information.

Of course, so am I.
