Only hard advice i give is to sleep when the baby sleeps. It can be tough, but you'll pick it uo quick enough; one arm carry football style in no time.T-minus 70 days for my first.

My only advice is to sleep train that baby as soon as possible. Lots of friends who thought cry-it-out was mean now have 3 to 5 year olds that won't sleep in their own rooms a single night. Meanwhile, all three of ours are out cold from 7:30pm to 7am and have been since 6-9 months old. It is the best decision my wife and I ever made.

They discharged my wife 3 days before the kid but told her she needed to stay with the kid. This meant they no longer fed her or helped her with personal care but required her to take care of the kid too. This last hospital SUCKED.

At least our hospital is really nice. This new maternity wing just opened in February. With our son we were at the same hospital but different area, had to bang on the wall in the next room to get the light to turn off in our room.

Thankfully my wife's doctor is in a rich area of town and our room was comfortable and nice. The hospital birthing wing had amenities along with some packages for 'those damn rich people'. I don't see it on their site anymore but they used to offer a ride home in a limo.

To put it into perspective , my wife gave birth in our home and when we arrived they made her shower by herself and she fell. That was the beginning..

I would have sued that hospital for neglect of a patient if my recovering wife was told to shower alone and fell. Fuck that noise.

Same exact situation here. Started with twins and then laughed at other parents when one was tired because they got to choose who had to stay up all night with the kid. Our third seemed so easy by comparison that we are considering a fourth.

Kids are 4 3 and 1, and wife wants more, but I'm not interested. Odd perspective with my new job having me gone all week and then home on weekends. I get home Friday night and am almost immediately overwhelmed from the kids. When you're not around it all the time you quickly get not used to it.

Yeah singleton parents are like elite rich snooty assholes who got it easy in life. Twins is like going to prison. Three or more you should probably just disappear yourself.

I can assure you that you do not want a diaper changing robot.I need aTuco diaper-changing robot ASAP, please.
I dry-heave when I pick up dry dog shit. I'm not ready for this. It's a miracle that I could keep my composure on EMS calls, but the poop calls are the ones that haunt me, not traumas/deaths.
It'd either accidentally murder your child or fling poop everywhere.
Probably both.

You don't have to worry about much poop smell until they start solids.
As far as what/when/how much, just talk to your ped Dr and do a little follow up research if you feel the need. The +/- range can be pretty broad it's gonna depend on the kid. There aren't really that many hard rules beyond the "common sense" stuff.

Wait until you are projectile vomited on at 3 am! That's the best.
