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

Take things one at the time, giving birth not so bad afterall,as for me i went through emergency csect. the fear we all once had and went through it, in the end what matters most for all mummies is the health of our little ones. once the baby delivered the pain and fear we once feared gone. However the reality came in when baby arrived. All i can say, it takes the whole village to support us emotionally, mentally and physically. Do not hesitate to get help if needed. Our mental health is important too. So husbands plays a big role too.
