Average age

I’m 59 and joined Gransnet after looking for advice on makeup. We were due to get married this month to coincide with our 60th birthdays, and I wanted to look nice. The wedding is now postponed until next year.
I have 2 DGDs and first became a grandmother at age 56.

I am 65 and not a gran but would like to be. Had a late much wanted baby at age 36 3/4 yrs after many years of trying.
He doesn’t want children but I am secretly hoping he changes his mind. Would never try and persuade him, it’s his decision and his life.

First grandchild at 56, I'm now 60.

I was 68 when I first became a granny. I was latish when I had my first child, and my children later still. We used to joke they were waiting until we were 70. I shall be 80 in June and only joined Gransnet a couple of years ago.

I have 33 grands and 8 greats. Now i am 77. First arrived when i was 40

31 but I’ve been counting backwards for a long time 71 really,
3 lovely daughters 8 GC, 25yrs down to 5yrs.

I joined because of getting locked in, and living on my own. I am lucky as I have a dog to walk so can get out but am really missing anyone to 'talk' to

I am 61 had my first granchildren at 52 second at 55 and my third at 59. I registered to join in with conversation today but have been keeping up with news for a few months.

Grandma at 46, I am now 97. My grandchildren married late and my eldest great grandchild is 21.
Joined GN to keep me in touch with the outside world when I became housebound a few years ago.
I believe I am the eldest gransnetter.

54 when the first of our 11 grands arrived. Eldest is now 20 and 1/2 way through her teacher training degree. Sadly not actually seeing much of any of them right now (Covid-19 getting in the way) but normally do enjoy quite a lot of contact.

First grandchild at 60. I and my daughters all started late. 72 now with 6 grandchildren , the youngest just 6 months

I'm 58 on Sunday
1 of 'my own' Grandsons, 8 months old & 6 Step-Grandsons, 14 down to 3

First gc at 37 I'm now 49 and have 6 gc ! They range from 12 - 3 months the two at each end girls with the 4 boys in the middle

First GC at 63 second GC last year. I am now 68.

I'm 64. My grandsons are 8 and nearly 3 so my daughters started late too. My eldest grandson lives in Australia and was born there. My youngest grandson lives not far from me and is a lovely handful!!!

I am 67 and my first GC was born in 2007 so 55 when I first became 'Nana'. I was quiet young when I had my first child - I was 20. I now have three GC from my daughter and one GC from my son. I love looking at all the GNs posts and I can identify with so many on this site. It's like belonging to our own little community.

I am 74 and have been on gransnett about 2 years. I have one granchild a grandaughter she is 19.

I don’t think age comes into it. You either are a gran or your not. Also read something recently about not giving out to much personal info

I'm 61 and have been nanny to 2 since I was 54.

I joined GN last year whilst looking for advice on a difficult problem I was having with my daughter. Whilst never having the courage to post my problem I did find a wealth of advice from G'sNetters so thank you all.

First at 63 second at 65. Joined as all types of people, ages and backgrounds participate.

I'm 62,i have 7 grandchildren oldest is 20.

I was 53 before becoming a Nana for the first time,, I’m now a nana to 3 girls and 1 boy the apples of my eyes and I’m now 62 which I don’t feel or like lol ?❤️??xx

I'm 70 (blimey when did that happen) but not in my head. My body sometimes claims I'm at least 170, especially when faced with stairs, technology, and anything that requires me to kneel! Thank heavens I shall only be required to do a slight bob when presented to the Queen when I receive my KBW (knackered but willing). I have found a few things in later life - the joy of gin, grannyhood, glasses, a happy marriage, a decent bloke, retirement, did I mention gin?

I'm 60. Elder GC will be 11 this month, younger will be 2 in May.

Bijou - these youngsters have no idea .
