Welcoming a new baby into the family is always a whirlwind of excitement, love, and yes—plenty of surprises.

Everyone dreams of that heartwarming moment when big brothers and sisters meet the newest member of the family.
Parents often imagine wide-eyed wonder, happy squeals, and maybe even a soft kiss on the baby’s head.

But as any parent knows, the reality can be a little different, especially when toddlers are involved.

Jordan and Kristen Jeremias of Wilmington, North Carolina, were no exception when they brought home their newborn son.
With a camera ready to capture their daughter Ella meeting her new baby brother for the very first time, they were probably expecting some kind of Pinterest-worthy moment.

After all, Ella loved playing with baby dolls, so surely she’d be over the moon with a real baby to cuddle, right?

Well, let’s just say things didn’t exactly go as planned.

As Mom and Dad moved closer to introduce the baby, they expected her to light up with joy.

But instead of excitement or giggles, Ella gave them… nothing. A blank stare.

No smile, no laughter, just a look that said, “Is this some kind of joke?”

The baby, as cute as could be, was gently placed on Ella’s lap with adults hovering nearby for safety.

 

 

You could practically hear the collective “aww” from everyone watching.

But if anyone was thinking this was about to turn into a sweet sibling bonding moment, they were in for a surprise.

Ella didn’t coo over her baby brother, she didn’t crack a smile, and she certainly wasn’t excited.

Her poker face could win her a championship, and without saying a word, she was clearly telling the world how she felt about this new addition.

Let’s be honest, introducing a new baby to an older sibling doesn’t always go smoothly.
For some kids, sharing the spotlight can be tough.

All of a sudden, they’re not the only one soaking up all the cuddles and attention.

But no matter how confused or uncertain they may feel, there’s always plenty of love to go around.

Parents know how to balance it—making sure their older kids get plenty of attention while also showering love on the new baby.

Still hoping for a sweet moment, the family tried to encourage Ella to give her baby brother a kiss.
Spoiler alert: it didn’t happen.

 

 

They quickly realized that it wasn’t baby brother who needed extra attention—it was Ella.

Understanding her feelings, they gently took the baby back and gave Ella some much-needed love and snuggles.

After all, a little reassurance can go a long way when you’re adjusting to being a big sibling.

The entire encounter was so relatable—and hilarious—that it quickly went viral, racking up over 30 million views.
Viewers couldn’t help but share their own stories.

One parent wrote, “My son was all about the baby for the first 2 days… then on Day 3 he asked, ‘When is he going home?’”

Another shared, “My daughter prayed for a sister. She got a sister. I think she may have glimmers of regret at times.”
