Mum I'm late... two weeks... its Aiden's...
Those were words I never thought I would hear my youngest daughter say, well not yet anyway. When she first told me I couldn't comprehend it, how could my baby, and my youngest at that, be having a baby of her own? It didn't make any sense then and if I am honest it still doesn't now, and she has only got three months of the pregnancy left. Honestly it feels like only yesterday I had a baby and a small toddler running me ragged, I had hardly any time to myself and the minute that I dad, the other would want my attention. Not that they remember that of course, I told them that they were the perfect babies, because to me they were and no matter how old they get, they always will be.

Not that she does of course, I'm almost jealous of her perfect little baby bump, if only I had been that lucky at her age. All I had to do was look at a cake and I put on a stone. It's true that Jess had been a bit full on with boys in the past, but I believed she had inherited her brains from my side of the family, as it has become clear her dad hasn't even got two to rub together, and I trusted her, as we had talked about safe sex on many occasions and I knew she was sensible enough not to get herself into any unwanted situations. That's until Jess told me, the idea of her keeping the baby was inconceivable to me, at least in the first few weeks. Every time she spoke to me, I hoped she would say she had changed her mind. But she hasn't...
