I have no kids, so there is much I don’t know firsthand, much I will never know.

In the movies, there is often a delivery room for the babies, and later a room where all the newborns lie in their colored blankets, with name tags taped on.

Does anything like that still happen in real life?
Would the rest of the family get to at least see the baby through a window once he had been stabilized?

I’ve never seen one of those nurseries with all the newborns lined up.

I had my kids in the early 2000s and the viewing room for newborns was already a thing of the past then.

Many, including the hospital that delivered my son and I was born, have shut down their nursery windows. Within a few years of his birth that hospital covered it over. So much concern about “privacy”. Gotten ridiculous. Babies are the only happy thing going on in hospitals. My husbands grandmother got a little joy looking in nursery windows when she was hospitalized for breast cancer before she died.
