Feeling down/not good enough

I know a lot of this is down to me spending too much time on social media or obsessing over what my friends managed to do for their babies, so I've started skipping all the baby content now but the damage is done. Baby is due in 3 weeks and I feel like my house is too small/cramped to give my baby everything I had hoped to.
I was hoping to have a nice big cot in our room but there's no space. We'll have to have a bassinet and then a mini cot.
Was hoping to have loads of floor space in our living room for playing, etc but no matter how much I move things around, it's just not enough..
I know the baby won't care, but I grew up in a very small cramped house and I always hoped I would be able to give my children better than what I had.

Been speaking to the perinatal mental health team and they are lovely, but I can't shift this feeling of not being good enough!

Any tips on how to keep myself positive?

Dry nappies overnight – should I worry?

My little one has started waking up with a dry nappy overnight, but then has a big wee after feeding. Is this normal, and do I need to be concerned? Would love to hear from you all.
She has lots of wet nappies through the day and is having plenty of her milk/bottle through the day. She is 5 and a half months old.

Thanks all

Crib

We have an almost 3 month (1 week away) and she sleeps in her snuzpod5. We keep finding her lying side ways int he night which doesn’t seem comfortable as her head is on the side and her feet are off the edge. She isn’t rolling yet any suggestions on whether she should move to a crib?
