“After years of fertility issues, I told my grandma I was pregnant. Her reaction was great.”
A young mother-to-be has captured the beautiful moment when she surprised her grandmother with the news that she is pregnant with twins after years of struggling with infertility.
Samantha Chadwick has been trying for years to have a child, but after a disheartening visit to a fertility clinic, she gave up on her dream of becoming a mother.
However, those dreams recently came true when the 27-year-old found out after several tests that she had conceived naturally.

“She’s still so excited”
After Samantha sadly lost her mother six years ago, the closest person she could tell was her 90-year-old grandma June, whose reaction she captured in the video posted to TikTok.
The video quickly went viral and garnered mass support for the Queensland, Australia-based mother-to-be.
“My grandma always said that I would be a good mother because my mother, who passed away six years ago, was a lifelong teacher of young children and all my life I have worked with children and loved it, being with them,” Samantha said.
“She’s still so excited and keeps calling me to make sure me and the babies are okay.
“I read her comments and she saw other videos I posted about it.”

“The love this lovely woman has for you is so heartwarming,” said a third person. “You are very blessed.”
