Who's had their other kids at the birth of their new baby? This is something I've been thinking about since DS was born and now that I'm thinking about #2 I thought I'd ask the question. The birth of DS was fantastic and I'd really like him to be involved as much as possible with the birth of his sibling. I know there's lots of info out there but would really like to hear of any BB members experiences with this. At the very least I would like ds to stay with me in the hospital. When ds was born we had a family room which is huge and I don't think the hospital would have a problem with him staying with dh and I either. He is a light sleeper though so maybe all the wake ups with the newborn might not be the best for him but I'm hoping he will be better with that by the time the new bub comes along. If you had your kids there do you think it freaked them out? This isn't something that I'm totally sure about but I just know that I think I want him there?
