I Totally Understand but!

Oh bless you. It's such an exciting time but it does take us back and remind us of when they came running to mum for hugs and support.
Why not send him a quick message, sending your love to all and reminding him that you are available if needed. Then, sit back and wait till you can give all three members of the new family the biggest hugs ever

I used to send my sons a brief message now and then:
"Mum loves you to bits, consider yourself hugged xxxx"

It made them laugh.

It’s hard to take a backseat, my sons children were born abroad that was the hardest thing when I knew I was finding out after the babies were born and all dies family were right there, I was so jealous and they are the nicest people you could meet.
Do as suggested be supportive by text.

That should be dils family

I always say ‘sending you a virtual hug’ and it’s natural that you want to at this exciting but worrying time.

Congratulations, how exciting! I would send son or DIL a message of support, just to let them know you are thinking of them.

What did she have? Do let us know please

My new Grandaughter was born yesterday morning 7lb 5 and I met her yesterday evening Gave all 3 hugs. Appreciate how lucky I am ?

Congratulations SisterAct, there is nothing better than holding your GC for the first time. ????

Aw, bless the little girlie, how lovely. Many congratulations.

Lovely news. We'll worth the worry. Enjoy your new wee ?!

Oh brilliant!

Great news

Congratulations to you all!

Congratulations how lovely for you. Does she have a name yet?

Congratulations!

I recognize I am late to the game, but I too agree that sending a supportive text is a great option in situations such as that.

Thank you for all your good wishes and advice.

Congratulations - new babies are wonderful
