Thanks for the input so far fellas. Hope this helps not just me, but anyone else lurking the forums as well.
Seems to be a constant theme and that's SLEEP. For my career we do shift work, and I can routinely get sleep deprived with no kid now. So the sleep aspect is gonna be something I gotta look into or research ways to make it better
Gonna look into the sleep training advice

Your biggest spending will be baby formula, assuming she wont breastfeed /pump and diapers. The older they get, the more expensive diapers become.
Sleep training is essential. Early. We sleep trained starting at 11 months and both my boys were fully comfortable sleeping in their own beds after like 2-3 months.
Stay on your womans emotional needs. Post partum depression is real.
The newborn stage is the most fun to me besides the lack of sleep.
Congrats

Stop impregnating girlfriends
Sleep train them ASAP!!
Try your best not to give in to their every beck and call, eventually they’ll cry themselves to sleep.
Set up a baby monitor to take some of the worry off. Get them accustomed to sleeping in their own room with the lights off.

Give each other grace. At all times both of you are going to think you do most of the work in the house. You’ll both have bad days. Just remember nothing is intentional. It just gets stressful sometimes.

- Won't be able to do much outside of work and going home for a while.

- Books are somewhat helpful.
- You'll imagine the how this little thing will become an adult.
- Enfamil isn't cheap.
- Post partum is real.
