Hi:)
Im pregnant with my first child and very excited:) My mum is also excited, which is great but im really struggling as she wants her partner to be called Granddad. We didn't have a Dad growing up so I find it really hard to accept that my child is going to call the man my mum is with 'Granddad'. Don't get me wrong, they have been together 7 years and I think he is a great guy and great for my mum but he wasn't my dad so how can I let my son call him grand...dad? It too hard for me. For one, my mum was the amazing person that brought us up on her own, she deserves the title of nanny/nanna/grandma, what ever she wants to be called. Two, surely my husbands dad deserves the title of granddad as he has been there all his life? Anyway, I was thinking of the names Gramps / Paps / Pops. Before I broach this with my mum does anyone have any suggestions of names or anyway I can do this without offending my mum or partner?
