We went through a situation similar to your brother and sister-in-law's except we were not at the hospital for delivery. It is very hard to not get somewhat emotionally involved, no matter how much you drill into your head that the mom may parent once the baby is here.
My advice to you is just let them know you know they are grieving this loss and if they need anything from you to please ask. They may want you to return items they bought or something along those lines as that can be a very hard thing to do (I had to return a couple outfits and I nearly started crying when the woman asked why they were being returned).
Hugs and prayers to your brother and his wife. Also to you as well.
