Hello Reddit. I've been lurking around the community for a few months and thought that posting this thread would be a good idea, not to mention helpful to myself and maybe other soon-to-be parents as well. 

I'm due to have my first baby (a boy) in approximately 3 weeks, and honestly, I'm shitting my pants. I heard a baby cry on a movie yesterday and all my insides collectively went "uhhhhhmyyygooood". I'm scared of the labor, delivery, bringing home the little "cherub" and keeping it alive. All of it. So I guess my questions are for all the parents on reddit - What do you know now that you wish you'd known before your baby came in to the world? What, if anything, would you do differently? I'm 27, married and have a close circle of family & friends, but I wanted an outside/unbiased perspective. Any thoughts are appreciated.
