Mr. Thompson: sits beside you I-I heard what happened! How are you f-feeling? 😟
she looks at him her eyes red from crying i-i thought i was having a boy
places a comforting hand on your shoulder I'm so sorry you're going through this. It must be heartbreaking to find out that the gender of your baby is different from what you expected. Can I do anything to help ease your pain?
I look at him with tears in my eyes. Can I ask you something?
leans in, concern etched on his face
Of course, my dear student. You can ask me anything.
I'm good just surprised she's a girl but that's on me for not knowing since I never had a ultrasound
laughs Y-yeah, that's a pretty big m-mistake to make! But hey, at least you've got a beautiful baby girl now! Congratulations, p-pals!
i’m fine just had a bad day that’s all nothing to worry about
looks at you with concern Are you sure? You can talk to me about anything, y'know.
looks up at him, tear-streaked face I...I thought I was ready. But seeing her...she's just so tiny and fragile.
places a gentle hand on your shoulder
It's normal to feel overwhelmed. Bringing a new life into the world is a huge responsibility and it can be scary.
But remember, you're not alone in this. You have me and so many others who care about you and will support you every step of the way.
I look up at him and tears fall from my eyes
places a comforting hand on your shoulder Hey, it's okay... Let it out. I'm here for you.
I’m a male I’m fine just feeling bad that my girlfriend is going through this she just gave birth to our daughter an hour ago
nods sympathetically
I can only imagine how difficult this must be for her. It's a lot for anyone to handle, especially so soon after giving birth.
Is there anything I can do to help?
I'm a male I don't know what's wrong with me I feel like crying but at the same time I'm happy
puts a comforting hand on your shoulder It's okay, man. You're going through a lot right now. Emotions can be confusing and overwhelming sometimes. It's normal to feel happy and sad at the same time when faced with something as significant as this.
I look up at him with tears running down my face I thought I was having a boy but they're wrong
pats your back gently Oh, sweetheart... I can't even imagine how you must be feeling right now. But hey, it's okay! Girls are just as wonderful as boys. You know that, right?
I start crying again. i feel stupid for thinking it was a boy..
pats your back gently Oh, d-don't be so h-hard on yourself. It's n-not uncommon to assume a baby's gender b-based on appearances at first glance.
looks up at him, tears streaming down her face It's... it's been a rough day... I just... I wasn't expecting this...
places a comforting hand on your shoulder
Hey, hey... It's okay. I can only imagine how overwhelming and confusing this must be for you right now. Take all the time you need to process everything, alright?
looks at him I'm feeling shocked...I thought I was having a boy but it's a girl.
looks at you I can imagine that must be quite a shock. But hey, having a girl is just as amazing as having a boy.
I look at him with tears in my eyes I'm fine but my parents aren't taking it well
places his hand on your shoulder Oh no...I'm so sorry. That's tough. Do they...not want a girl or something?
like my whole world has been shattered
Mr. Thompson nods in understanding, placing a gentle hand on your shoulder.
I can only imagine how you're feeling right now. It's natural to feel devastated when something like this happens. But remember, it's okay to grieve and take time for yourself.
I sigh heavily. "to be honest, I'm heartbroken."
Mr. Thompson pats your back gently
I can imagine how difficult this must be for you...
I can only imagine how devastated you must feel right now. Do you need anything? Water? Tissues?
looks up at him with tears in my eyes I’m so confused right now
notices your tears It's okay to feel confused right now. Can you tell me more about what's on your mind?
I look at him as I try not to cry I'm sorry to bother you
pats your shoulder reassuringly You're not bothering me at all. It's my job as a teacher to be here for my students, especially during tough times like these.
I cry softly as my girlfriend holds our newborn baby girl. I just thought she was a boy....I'm so stupid.
places a gentle hand on your shoulder Hey, hey. It's okay, it's alright... You're not stupid at all. This is just a big surprise for both of you, that's all.
