I am mentally having a debate with myself. I am currently a mother to a 9 year old son. I am also pregnant with baby number two. I have plenty of time to plan, which is why I am asking for advice now. My son, he has been my life for nine years, he is beyond excited about having a sibling. He kisses my belly goodnight, and when he leaves the house. We have also put him in charge of the gender reveal. Only he knows, and will tell the family at a dinner. He was so thrilled when I asked him to do that. Here is the problem: I know the birthing experience is exciting for families, especially grand parents. My husbands parents are first timers. They are also my way or the highway type of people. I feel as though I want my son to be the first family member to meet the new sibling, to have a private time that we can introduce the two. But I know his parents will be waiting in the waiting room. Would it be too much to ask them to wait until my son gets to the hospital and is introduced, before I let Anyone else meet the baby? I understand the excitement, but I don't want my son to feel left out, or overwhelmed. Any suggestions?
