  • Thanks all. I feel a dreadful hypocrite really as she's not the easiest person in the world and I've done plenty of moaning about her. That said, though, I wouldn't wish her ill and DH is devoted to her.

    We still don't know for sure and until they say something more conclusive we won't know really.

  • GFH - big hugs to you all. It's a really awful time for you.

    My year 11s didn't seem to notice my bump either, must be the age. All the other years had been giving me funny looks for weeks but it was only my yr9s who dared to ask and even then it was in a very round about way.

    Sorry to hear about MIL. Must be a difficult time for you all xx
    Updating soon...
  • Thanks, courgette. They also said "You need to get a hobby Miss" which I thought was pretty funny.

  • Sounds better than my 6th formers. One of them who i had taught since y8 and then y13 said to me she had seen a programme the previous night about which positions were best during pregnancy, to which i went bright red and mumbled something back about
