I was 39 when my first grandchild was born. He is now a strapping 17 year old!

Me too similar figures but what is so scary is my eldest grandson is 24 in a stable relationship and has just bought a nice flat - he threatens me by saying Great Grandma to me I am 57. He may not live to be 25 without the feel of Grandmas boot!

I was 40 when I first became a grandma. She's now 21. Her younger sister (now 20) made me a great-grandma last year when I was 60! smile
