I had my first baby when I was twenty . my first grandchild at 41,
Now I have 9 grandchildren & 7 grt grand children .....

Slightly off-topic but here goes.

If your parents didn't have any children, it's very unlikely you would have any either.

OK - I'm off out now!

I married 1st husband at 17 had first of 4 children at 18, married my 2nd hubby at 35 and had our son at 37, 18 months later my eldest daughter made me a grandmother and over the years this was added to by my other children to 4 grandsons and 6 grandaughters my youngest now age 25 giving me a beautiful granddaughter Grace just 3 months ago but when I was 59 my eldest grandson made me a great grandmother , added to all these I have 12 step grandchilden and 2 step greatgranchilden who all call me Nanny and only one has ever called me step!!! , very expensive at christmas but worth every penny

I became a grandma at 41 and am now a grt grandma of 4 .The first grt grandchild was born when I was 59 and made our daughter a grandma at 38.

I became a grandma for the first time on May 30th and I was 65 yesterday. When my daughter goes back to work I will be looking after my granddaughter :-)

My great aunt was 35 when she had her first grandchild, but now at 67 she's still not a great-grandmother.

My mother was 32 when she had me, I also was 32. My youngest had my first granchild when she was 18. and I was 55. My eldest son is having a baby in 4 weeks and I will be 67. I have daughters youngest 3 days a week and in holidays all 3, do find it hard work but love it.

Just hope I can find enogh energy for new baby.

I have the same motto on my fridge and a cusion which says " if mum says no ask grandma!

I was 37 when I became a Granny. Now I have 4 grandchildren and I love it. I am much more relaxed and confident with them than I was with my own 4 children as I don't have the worry of 'getting things right'.
I have a fridge magnet which says " If I'd known how much fun grandchildren were, I'd have had them first". Lol. :-D

How lovely for you Susanne!

I was 32 when I had my only daughter. She is now 22 so I am 54 and waiting.................!!!!

i married young(17)and i was fairly young when my children became adults,they got older and older,my friends were becoming grandparents and i was left thinking it was never going to happen to me,and then at the grand old age of 45 my 21yr old son told me i was going to become a nanny and i was overjoyed,14mslater my daughter had a beautiful baby girl who is now 1wk away from her 1st birthday and what a joy they both are to me and hubby,when my 4 children were little money was tight(only one wage coming in)so they didnt get what they needed or wanted(got lots oflove instead)
but now my grandchildren are here i can afford to spoil them just a bit,and the icing on the cake is ,my eldest son has just found out that at the age of 28 he will become a father for the first time in feb,so i will have 3 grandchildren(the more the better) lifes good.x :-D :-D :-D
