Playing the waiting game (grandchild due)

I've seen pictures and videos of him - he looks absolutely fine (certainly can cry loud enough lol) but both mum DD and he are on antibiotics as when she went in on Tuesday night they said she had a temperature so possible infection. Oddly they still haven't had results of tests to see what infection -though she feels fine as does he appear to be behaving fine. I don't know how common this is. So they'll be out no sooner than Saturday if infection/antibiotics go well . (Though I recall being in nearly a week with her 31 years ago, as routine)

After a rather s**t day this is lovely news to hear. I’m so happy for your family. Nothing beats the thrill of a new life. ?

This is the best thread ever. Many congratulations to the new parents and grandparents ???

Wonderful news, Newbie and Ellie! Enjoy your new grandsons. It is such a special time.

Congratulations Newbie ... how lovely.

Congratulations

So first thing this morning I’m on gransnet to see if he has arrived! Congratulations gran! Now it’s my turn. My sons partner is having a planned section today. So I’m glued to my phone!

Congratulations...beautiful name for a lovely boy born in July.

Lovely news for you all ?

I didn't say earlier as I didn't want to add to your worries, my daughter was induced on a Monday and after starting and stopping labour she finally had a section on the Thursday. That was a long week!
It's exhausting for everyone in the family so I've felt your concern.

I hope your daughter and grandson baby Leo are both able to come home soon ☺️

Congratulations! Worth the wait!

Congratulations

Wow thank goodness everything is ok, I’ve been checking every hour on the hour. Congratulations and welcome to officially become part of the gang.

That's a lovely happy outcome, so thrilled for all of you, welcome to the world Leo!

Sleep well tonight. Thank you for letting us all be a part of it. ?

Thanks all! Yes bedtime now. Baby is called Leo for short - mother went in with an infection (which she wasnt aware of) so they both must stay in for couple of days and have antibiotics. Howeverjudging by the video she sent of him crying his eyes out at having to be born he seems in pretty good shape!! So I am not overly worried now

Congratulations ???. So pleased for youxxx

9 lb 5oz - wow!!! That is some baby! Congratulations to all!

Great news. You'll be on a high at the moment - I remember it well. I hope you sleep. Best wishes to all.
