Oh am I the first? :-)
The best advice I was given was to sleep when the baby sleeps. The first few weeks are especially challenging and sleep deprivation will be rampant. If you get too concerned with a tidy house (or shower for that matter) you will be feeling like a zombie in no time. Take sleeping shifts with each other if you can, or hire a doula to help out (mom's are also great for a few hours of z catching or cooking meals).

I've been given a lot of bad advice but I can't remember any of it, because I didn't need to!
