Congrats on the new baby! As for the humidity, the only humidity it will need is a humid hide box placed on the warm side of the tank. Instead of an upside down bowl you can use a small butter bowl with a lid, turn it upside down and cut a hole in the top that's plenty large enough for your gecko to get into. This will keep your papertowel substrate dry and the moist hide moist. When you cut the hole in the top of the butter bowl it's a good idea to then go around the hole you cut with a small file or something such as that to be sure there are no sharp edges that could cut your little one. The temps on the warm side should be no higher than 93 at the very most, I don't go above 92 with mine. Hope that helps, enjoy that little one!
