It's a girl !

Submitted by toowise on February 17, 2026
I just thought I would let you all know that my daughter gave birth to a baby girl yesterday.

Both mother and child are doing well.

This is my first grand-daughter (I have three grandsons already), and the first child for my daughter.

She was a healthy weight at 8 pound and 10 ounces.

So, I would like announce to the world that Lottie is here and kicking.

As soon as she's old enough, I shall be educating her in the ways of JetPunk!

Congratulations toowise! Love the name. It’s not very common in the US, but my daughters had several “Lottie Dolls” when they were younger. Have you heard of those dolls? The company that makes them started in London.

Congragulations for you! How unexpectedly pleasant it is to hear such joyful news for a person, especially from you (what is it called? parasociality?)

I can only wish health and happiness to the child. May she be happy!

It's only February, a bit early to say most likes for 2026.

I think the amount of likes this has got reflects the caring nature of our community on JetPunk.

Thanks guys!

I know, that's why I said "possibly"

I do see it as a very real possibility though, considering the likes are at 40+ which had not been achieved since the "heartflooding" in April last year.

Congrats again!
