Facebook has added a new status option to allow couples to mark the very significant time in their lives when they are expecting a baby. It is, of course, called “Expecting a baby.”

Fortunately, that part is optional.

And anyone who is having a baby, plus most of their friends and family, will be happy to get the news. Especially, of course, grandparents.
Who are, after all, only on Facebook for the babies.
