Thanks for the advice. We have lots of friends with 2 month - 4 year olds. Thankfully we've got a great support system and we've seen what works and what doesn't.Wow. What a wonderful thing that is.
I'm going to share one the best pieces of advice I ever got on having a newborn in the house: It sleeps in the living room.
Thing is, a newborn is going to sleep no matter what, then they are going to wake up when they want to. Get them to used to sleeping through noise (like the TV) early on, and the baby won't wake with every little sound in the house in the future.
It'll save you a whole lot of sleepless nights later on.
Congratulations to you and your wife Mistuh T!
