One of my first blog posts was about this: http://esheavyindustries.com/b/2015/02/amazing-chaos-aka-par...

For me things did change dramatically and honestly, it was hard at first but looking back I think I was going into it being a fairly selfish person. Since I realized I was being a dumbass and really took in the whole situation it has been amazing, seriously. Of course I don't have anywhere close to the free time I used to have to play around with things but what has replaced that time is even better.

With that being said, the only suggestions or tips I think I could offer would be to try and get your mind right before the baby comes. If you are like me and have to go through the first month with a "my life is horrible, blah blah blah" feeling then things are going to be really bad. It's hard enough without having additional blockers bringing you down, try and get rid of those before the big day comes. Additionally, not everyone has this luxury, but if you do recruit family to help the first week or so. Having someone around to help with the day-to-day stuff that you are going to stop doing can be nice.
