Congratulations! I'm 1 year ahead of you on the journey! A tip that you may never need: When stressed try imaging things from the baby POV! Nothing about a baby is mechanically hard! Its emotions and timing of things. Having to help soothe the baby when you're extremely sick is the hardest thing ive had to have patience and understanding for and thinking of it from the POV of "he feels terrible and needs and wants me" helped a lot more than thinking "I can never have a moment to myself"

You're gonna do great! It's super rewarding I enjoy it way more than I ever thought I would.

congratulations. Now. heed my advice. Take it. please i offer it from first hand experience: take out a life insurance policy on your partner/wife, yourself, and the baby. do it, pay direct withdrawal and forget about it. god forbid you need it but if you do, it will make things way easier. coming from a dad who did it the hard way. life doesn’t care but you can prepare yourself and forget about it. i wish you all the best op
