Wow, a lot of great advice! And I was already fairly certain that the only "once-size-fits-all" bit of advice was probably from Douglas Adams... "Don't Panic".

I know you say you have read enough books, but as Foot comes across as a pretty good Dad, I think it might be worth taking a look. He gives other advice in the same post anyway.
Actually, already spied it, and already dug it out on Amazon. :-D Judging from some of the comments it seems like it takes a pretty extreme view. But I'm fairly open-minded, I'll listen to any new ideas. I like the slant... instead of focusing on the parents perspective of a new baby, it tries to explain the world from the baby's perspective. Interesting.
