This is not a problem. There is no requirement that your fiance brings a copy of the I-129F to the interview. Some embassies will actually send you a PDF copy of the approved petition - Warsaw did it for us. The email you received is standard and is just telling you to await your NOA1 in the mail. The next correspondence you will receive from USCIS is an approval or request for evidence in around 15 months.

What does my fiance have to bring to the interview?

The Embassy will contact you with the explicit list after your approval and when they receive your documents. Standard for everyone is the I-134 Affidavit of Support, medical exam results, police certificate, birth certificate + certified translation (if applicable), etc. You can technically see what your Embassy requires of you early by looking at the State Department's interview page for your country. But again, if you just sent in the I-129F this is a conversation for the future, as both the medical exam and police certificate should be done right before the interview.

What's the link for the state department interview page?

For Philippines, see here. Again, you should follow these steps only after your approval, but it may be helpful now just to be aware of what will be needed. Rest assured that if you submitted your I-129F packet you've done all you needed until USCIS contacts you.

I've looked through my chats and I'm freaking out cause I called my fiance my husband. He calls me love and I call him my husband. I sent in three years worth of chats and I've been calling him my husband for that long and I'm worried it gonna effect my petition.

It might or it might not. No way to predict now, this is another reason I do not recommend submitting any chats. We submitted none

So our petition got approved. Once we have a case number, do we pay the fees on the CEAC and follow the steps here on this link? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/step-2-begin-nvc-processing.html

Assuming tou petitioned for a K1, you follow the instructions per your Consulate as NVC doesn't do any data collection for the K1

Does my fiance have to fill out a ds-160 form or a ds-260 form?

K1 => DS-160

K1 is a non immigrant visa.

Do I fill out an affidavit of Support form- I-134 and have my fiance take it with him to the interview?

[tseth15 0]

How do I fill out the I-134 form property? I have my recent W-2 from my employer and it's about 40,000 in income. Only sponsoring my fiance.  It's that enough evidence to prove I can support my fiance?
