Grandchild as old as youngest!

Catherine McDiarmid-Watt | Wednesday, February 22, 2012 | 2 comments

I have a friend who had hers at 47 and 50 ...

Went into the doctors, thinking menopause - to only leave being corrected on that score. LOL!

She has a grandchild almost as old as her youngest.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.

I am 44 and just found out I am pregnant... Not so unusual.. except that this Saturday is the baby shower for my first grandchild who will be born in July. My grandchild will be older than my baby. I have told my parents, I haven't told my son yet... I don't want to overshadow the event. Any advice out there?
