Well I will say Congratulations ahead of time. I am sure once you hold her you will fall in love. I have never been even a mother so I have no idea how it would feel to see one of your children become a parent. I can imagine that there would be all kinds of emotions. I hope you get to feeling a better about this, your going to be a Grandma so you can play with the cute baby but hand over the crying baby. Meaning that you only have to deal with the good stuff, not that you made the baby cry. :eek: Best wishes and a safe delivery to the mom and baby.

I am so excited for you and your family Violet. Definitely sending you tons of positive thoughts right now. Isabella is a lovely name. You will be wonderful grandmother, she is lucky that she will have you in her life. Do they live close, will you get to spend lots of time spoiling her?

They live only 20 minutes away I hope i will get time to spoil her You know new moms find it hard to give up their little ones so easily. I will offer my support whenever they need me but i think they will do just fine.

Hi Violet, being a grandmother wow. I have adult children but no grandchildren yet. So congratulations. I suppose connecting with how we felt we were young, nervous and could we do it may have something to do with the emotional turmoil you are feeling. Loving our kids and knowing all the trials and tribulations that they have been through and then worrying about what is going to happen next. Mixed feelings. Just one day at a time. One precious moment, one smile, one joy. Congratulations.

the waiting is killing me I could not go to hospital my duaghter not well. My son called at lunch said she was half way there but being the first child it may take awhile 33o now waiting till my h usband get here after work around 4oo then i will go to hospital I so wanted to be there for my son i explained why he u nderstands. It must be an awful long day for him and his wife i am anxious agitated want to get going any other friday my husband would be off at 3 but no today he has some kind of conferance to go to dam it. I wish he get here i want to go to hospital so badly but i guess i can't do anything there either i will make it up to my son somehow but i know he understand it is just i wanted so badly to support him and again i have to choose the one who needs me more it is okay soon i will go to hospital another hour to go that all i hope all goes well it is a long time for her to be in labor.

I am sure your son is going to be so overwhelmed and everything will seem so surreal he probably will be just as happy to have you there after the fact. Maybe you will get there before she delivers too. Either way it's going to be a great day for you Violet. Congrats again.

I hope nature starts getting its rear in gear i am more nervous then my son for god sake. Lol he has always had a calm demeanor. yeh this granny has no patience what so ever this granny wants the baby out now. let nature take its course lol i should have known this baby would not come out without a fight her ma is the same way hopefully doc get there soon and helps nature along a bit. i took a bath waiting now is the killer waiting for news that everyone is okay. this granny is getting older by the minute here to bad i didn't have a shot of something stronger but then that wouldn't look good going into hospital a little tipsy
