You very quickly learn how adaptable newborns are and how precious you were about your first and 'never waking a sleeping baby' lol. Although I wasn't that precious about it even then heh.
Definitely go with the flow. Sometimes bub is awake during the getting ready rush (i would wear bub or use rocker) and other times I had to wake bub for the school run. I wouldn't stress it, they're easy when they're tiny. It's as they get a bit older and under your feet that you feel it more IMO.
Walking to school is a great option if possible. Bub sleeps in pram, you get some exercise, and no getting everyone in and out of car.
I'm sure you'll find your groove and bub will just fit right on in
ETA: Actually one tip I would give... try and have your shower before your partner leaves for work. This seems to make such a huge difference to my morning if I'm ready first. Then I can muddle my way through getting everyone else fed and ready heh. (this does NOT include fancy hair or makeup tho! LOL)
