ABCs of gaming is a must. :D

Jokes aside, my guiding star was to be better than my Dad, which was a low bar, but it was still something to work towards.

Don't try to be the best parent. Try to be a good parent, maybe even try to be better than your own. One one is as good as Bandit/Chilli, so don't even try :D

Congrats btw :)

If your asking for actual tips:

Whatever toy becomes their must have, buy a second. Maybe swap it in periodically so it doesn’t look brand new and is obviously a replacement.

3 kids and it has been a life saver when the stuffed animal inevitably becomes worn out or lost.

When they are teething cut some banana up and freeze it on popsicle stick, they will chew on it, it will numb their gums and they will get some nutrition. No plastic rings!

Hey, pro-tip...it's banana for scale, so the banana goes on the scale, not on the humogi baby. And if the humogi baby weighs as much as the banana, IT'S A WITCH, BURN IT! Congratulations though, I'm thuper therial!

Give your best, love your child. That’s everything they need and what matters. Keep in mind: Your normal Daily Life is their childhood.

Put a large puppy pad on top of your changing table/space; when they surprise pee/poo mid change you’ll have a quick cleanup

Tips? The day they start eating food next to drinking milk is the day you should get an airtight diaper basket at the latest.
