First Grandchild born early hours of this morning, little boy weighing 7lb 4. Mum, Dad and Baby boy doing well, new Granny totally over the moon, (so is Granddad BTW).

Going to be called Linus after my DILs late Father and Peter after my DH .

Going to see him later on.

Did I mention I am so HAPPY and I am CRYING

Many congratulations. I became a granny about 9 months ago & it is honestly one of the best things that has ever happened to me.

Weeping with you OP. Flowers galore.

Welcome to the smug granny club!

magimedi · 15/02/2016 08:32

Still no GC, Andrew?

How old is your DS?

I had nearly given up all hope when my little miracle arrived.

Many congratulations Flowers
The cliches are true. A grandchild fills a space in your heart that you didn't know was empty (I have 9)!

MrsJayy · 15/02/2016 08:37

Congratulations. I have been a Granny for a little over a week now and I love it.

HazelBite · 15/02/2016 08:46

Gosh I'm dead jealous, I am the only one of my social circle who is not a granny, I wouldn't mind I have four sons the youngest is 29!

I fear I may be pushing up daisies before any grandchildren come along.

Congratulations OP I am very pleased for you Flowers

MrsJayy · 15/02/2016 08:48

MamaLazarou · 15/02/2016 08:50

Congratulations, Granny! Flowers

Lovely news.
I have 6 , five boys and a girl and they are the reason we don't take off to sunnier climes, especially in winter.

Love them all to bits and we have regular family get togethers too.
