Age of attaining grannyhood

I was 62. Best thing ever. DH and I loved her to bits the moment we saw her. Same with her sister who came along 3 years later

The best thing is growing up with the GC. Sadly not everyone can do that later in life.

I was in my late thirties when the first one arrived. It was far too early for me. The last one arrived when I was 65. All done now.

I was 59 when I first became a Granny and 64 when the second one arrived.

My nephew was a grandparent before I was!

I was 50 when my first grandchild arrived then 7 more over the next 7 years. Hopefully no more?

I was 45, felt too young, as our youngest was only nine, she’s 19 now, and there are five more! They have all brought great joy, but I admit I’ve probably been more grannyish with the younger ones!

I was 50

I was 48, 64 nearly 65 when the last one was born. 2 great grandsons as well now, I was 72 and almost 75 when they were born.

I was 47.

I was 72

I was 48, with GC ranging from 29 down to 5.
We have 3 great grandchildren, of 2, nearly 2, and 7 months.

I was 51 and DGD is now 27. There are four younger DC, the youngest of whom is 11.

I was 52 when dgs was born and 55 when dgd born. Both absolute delights still at 14 and almost 11.

I am 61 and still waiting!!

I was almost 58 when she was born just before my birthday. I was so thrilled although the emergency c section was scary.
The last one was born when I was 69.
I don't feel old especially when I'm with these lovely children.

I never thought I would have DGC then had two when I was 60, another two at 62 and one at 65 from two younger DSs. Then out of the blue my oldest DS presented me with number 6 at age 72 this year. His partner is much younger than him so who knows?

I was 44 . I had my son at 18 and he became a father at 26 . I made my (late) mum a grandma at only 38.

58

My 1st grandchild was born 8 years ago, when I was 52 and my son (her father) was almost 30.

I was 54 when my first grandchild was born, and 60 when the last was born. How lovely it is to be a grannie - I just love it.

I was 68. That seemed perfectly normal to me. My parents were also in their mid to late sixties when they became grandparents. My father said he was too young to be a grandfather!

I was 46. My son was in the army, came home on leave and asked, 'Would you like to go see your grand-daughter tomorrow?'
That was the first I knew of Hannah's birth, though I had known about my son's 3 year relationship with his girl-friend, though I'd never met her as they both lived 550 km away.

I was so excited, I said, 'Can I tell people?' And spent the next half hour joyfully jumping up and down and telling all my friends I was a grandma.

My son went back to camp and Hannah's mother came to me and I took care of the baby whilst she went to Tauranga to tell her own mother she'd had a baby.

From then on, Hannah spent a lot of time with me as Mum very much wanted to go back to uni to complete her degree.
Hannah is 26 now and we are still very close. She lives and works in London; thank goodness for Facebook.

46 for one grandaughter,65 for second grandaughter,two different parents,am still hands on with both my second grandaughter is celebrating her first birthday today so party later on,I have have brought my eldest graughter up since age of 4 when my daughter died,we live together and are very close

I was 44 when my first GD was born - hard to believe she's nearly 22 now. My last GS arrived when we were 62.

First one born at 52 last one 61 five in between
