Any baby manual to read before the kiddo arrives? Do's and don'ts, troubleshooting, answers to common questions? Thanks!

To hard and fast rules. You can read up online or chat with people with experiences. Many a times, people with experiences will provide you with better information than books as they are real life experiences that they gained from their own children. This is definitely very well informed. Reading online will help you to gain extra knowledge and make your life easier in certain ways too.
