Channel 2 Action News reporter and anchor Erin Coleman is expecting her first child, she announced this week.

On WSB-TV's Facebook page, they shot a photo of co-anchor John Bachman with a facetious prediction. (See photo to the left.)

Also on the Facebook note: "Will it be a boy or a girl? Leave your guesses and well wishes for Erin and her husband and tune in to Channel 2 Action News at 4."

Coleman has worked at WSB since 2009. She currently anchors the 4 p.m. news program with Bachman.

"Halfway through," she emailed me. "Can't wait to be out reporting on those 90 plus days come June and July :)."

A Philadelphia native and current Cobb County resident, Coleman worked in Arkansas and North Carolina before coming to Atlanta.
