Scared of birth and the life after

Im currently 36 weeks and i believe altho my edd is in 4 weeks time, i can still give birth anytime from now. However i cant help but to feel scared of giving birth. I know the pain will be beyond words. And im scared of the life after having a baby as i heard its very traumatising especially the first few months. 😭😭 My husband cant wait for the baby to arrive but i believe husbands wont really know what we will be going through. I do want the baby to come fast but i feel like also not ready for the heavy responsibility and commitment. If you get what i mean. How do i think positive and look at the brighter side 🫠 #FTM

Honestly i'm like you too. But once your baby comes out you will feel the happiest mother ever!! 🙂 First Month you need to be mentally strong because your mind and body feel exhausted and not enough sleep but as days passes by when you see your child growing up you will missed those moments when they baby. Now i'm pregnant with my second child at 30wks! 🤣 Feeling scared of labour still never goes away! But at the same time I feel excited to meet my baby. Our partner must be positive, helpful & supportive to help you when in need after labour. ❤️
