Did the older sibling meet baby in the hospital?

    Yes, he was the first person to meet his little brother! I had a c-section and he came in as soon as we were in our room (about 2.5 hours after baby was born). I have a video of it and it still makes me tear up! Now, when we got home, it wasn't as magical, but the hospital meeting went great.

    Yep. DD1 met DD2 during the hour after she was born! She was with my inlaws and my parents were at the hospital, so when the doctor predicted the baby would be born between 4-4:30, my inlaws brought her so they could see us/baby before DD1's dinner and bed. it wasn't what I had in mind, and DD1 was kind of afraid of the baby, but no long term damage done. She came back the next day and was so psyched.

    No, but I was home within 3 hours of delivering, so it was easier to have her meet us at home.

    Yes! N was in the room with my parents when E was born. He met him again before E came home. (E had an extended stay due to preterm birth). I think it went pretty well.
