A 29-year-old woman is set to become Ireland's youngest grandmother.
The Belfast woman, who had her first child at 14-years old, discovered she would be a grandmother after her 15-year old daughter revealed she was expecting her first child with her boyfriend.
According to media reports, the teen took to her Facebook account to share a scan of the child and her news:
"Just can't wait to hold him or her in my arms, really don't think it's hit me yet."
She added that she does not mind the sex of the child, after it's believed the father implied he would like a son.
Commenting on her scan picture, the teen responded to one question about the gender of her future child saying:
“We don't care once it's healthy."
It is believed the 15-year old is in a relationship with a local 17-year old boy, also from Belfast.
The news means the mum-of-two will be Ireland’s youngest grandmother at 29 years old.
Both mum and her daughter have chosen to keep their identity anonymous.
