What New Grandparents Worry About

​New parents aren’t the only ones with worries about this new adventure!

Do you remember finding out you were going to be a grandparent? For most of us, it was a thrilling moment! The excitement of having a little one to cuddle and love, the anticipation of watching this new little person learn and grow! The adventures you’ll have and the memories you’ll make! The visions of the family stories and traditions you’ll hand down!

Does any of that sound familiar? Most of us start daydreaming (and shopping!) long before the baby arrives. For many of us, though, there are also worries:

• Will I be a good enough grandparent?
• Will I be able to keep up with the newest trends and information?
• Will I do something to mess up with my grandbaby’s parents?
• Will I be able bond with my new grandchild when I can’t be there because of money, time or distance?
• Will what I want as a grandparent line up with what the parents want from me?
• Will the other grandparents have a closer relationship?

These are the things that keep us awake at 3am. The things we talk about with our closest friends. The things we spend time searching for on the internet.

These are the things that we try to help you with at More Than Grand.
