best wishes to you
You'll be pulling double duty for awhile and your needs will come last. Your baby will need a ton of attention and your wife will likely need some recovery time.
Ask lots of questions. Lots of baby books try to scare you, take their advice with a grain of salt.
Learn how to swaddle your baby, always put him/her to sleep on his/her back, and don't use a hand-me-down mattress or sheets.
You'll learn sleep-deprivation like never before, but it is more than worth it.
