Things you wish you did/purchased for first bio kid?

Hey, first pregnancy here and feeling pretty alone in it. Not sure if it’s that family lives so far away or all my friends are at different stages. But I’m wondering what wisdom you have to share: what do you wish you had done before baby was born? Or maybe items you wish you’d had for your first? Thank you!

Honest question, no judgment

Are there any moms-to-be here who don’t feel like doing the whole social media announcement, photoshoot, etc.? Don’t get me wrong, I’m absolutely ecstatic to be pregnant. It’s just that this journey has been really tough for us, especially after going through IVF for a while. I also feel like its specifically curate...
