Terrified of giving birth

I’m only 22 weeks and I’m starting to get nervous.

My baby boy is measuring big and the doctor said they’re going to induce me at 38 weeks due to gestational diabetes.

I’m really nervous already, and I still have 16 weeks to go! This is my first baby and all everyone keeps telling me is how bad it hurts😬 I know it’s going to hurt but I need to stay strong mentally.

How did/do you cope with the fear of labor ? I’m trying to focus on my baby instead but as it gets closer I’m getting major anxiety about everything 😯
