SIL is about to have her first baby. I have only had sections so can't advise her about anything labour related but have been giving her some tips about newborns.

What would be your top tips about labour/newborns/first couple of days/weeks?

Fair point, Aitch - I also used to sit in an armchair with my feet up, cuddling the baby, and rest that way.
