Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, expecting her third child in mid-January, is pushing her State of the City address back to March to accommodate her family’s new arrival.

The speech is provided annually, typically the first or second week of January, with the mayor laying out her vision for the upcoming year while making commitments around key priorities. Wu’s first daughter is due on Jan. 15.

Officials have not set an exact date for the 2025 address, a city spokesperson told the Herald Wednesday afternoon, adding that it will be sometime in March.

“It is a big endeavor,” Wu said of the State of the City, during her monthly ‘Ask the Mayor’ segment on GBH earlier Wednesday. “We take it really seriously in terms of mapping out what’s happening for the city.

“It’s also the longest speech that I give all year,” she added, “so even being able to be on my feet and deliver that for the 25-30 minutes, I want to make sure we’re doing that right and treating it as seriously as usual.”

Wu, 39, announced her pregnancy in July and reaffirmed her decision to seek reelection in 2025 last month, saying she plans to formally announce after her baby is born. Two potential challengers are still weighing whether to jump into the race.

The mayor and her husband of 12 years, Conor Pewarski, have two sons, Cass, 7, and Blaise 9, both of whom Wu gave birth to while as a city councilor, and are expecting a girl.

“This is a job when important decisions have to be made I’m there to make those decisions,” Wu said on Wednesday, “whether I’m on vacation with my family or at whatever hour of the evening. Certainly, a lot of how I do the job is going to change while I’m recovering and making sure that the baby and our family are settled.”

Wu touted how she’s “grateful” to City Council President Ruthzee Louijeune who is slated to represent the mayor during appearances at public events in the early goings after the baby arrives.

The mayor has pointed to her ability to juggle motherhood and public service. She became the first city councilor to give birth while serving in office, when she had her first child, Blaise, during her first term in December 2014. Wu gave birth to her second child, Cass, in July 2017 when she was president of the City Council.

She has also noted that unlike her first two pregnancies, which were “pretty smooth and straightforward,” this one came with difficulties. Wu and her husband tried for years to get pregnant and had two miscarriages along the way.

“We will see when the delivery happens,” the mayor said, “how that goes, and I will take it a little day by day.”
