You wife will be completely overwhelmed. She will say and do things that you have never, ever seen her do before. Be home, a lot.

If I could do it again, I would schedule the offers of help from family and friends so that they weren't all concentrated in the first week. 3 weeks in, when everyone is gone and you guys are on you on, it would be really nice to have some friends drop in with dinner, or a parent around to rock the munchkin down at 3am.

Also, if anyone gives her shit about breast-feeding/bottle-feeding, punch them right in the mouth. Seriously.
