Here are some things that I think people should know that are usually not exactly publicised, or they weren't to us.
Let me know if any of these are helpful!
The Boppy is usually marketed towards the mother as a support for breastfeeding. What wasn't made known to us (my Wife found out via Tik Tok (ugh, I know)) that it's great for supporting the baby when they're starting to sit up.
We had dealt with inconsistent bottle feedings for few weeks, and we were wondering what the issue was. Our pediatrician had us take a look at the nipples. We were unaware of the range of nipple apertures. We decided on using the #1 and #2 nipples. Needless to say, if you add bottles to a registry, check the size on the item before adding it to the list.
Do what you can to not let your little nugget snuggle you through the whole night. Let them cry themselves to sleep. It's hard, but it works.
