L&D tips and advice

First time mama here and I need some advice!

I just hit 36 weeks on the dot- I know that technically after 37 she can come whenever she wants to come, so I really need some advice to calm down my anxiety about giving birth.

First off - my pain tolerance is very low but my mental state is very high...sometimes 😂😩 I feel like I may be able to get through this 100% natural (no epidural , no pain meds , etc) by reminding myself that this is only temporary, that’s my plan at least considering I’m terrified of epidural but do you mamas have any advice for me as to how to get through the painful contractions med free?

Second off - the anxiety built up before labor. How do I calm myself during labor ? Any specific breathing techniques while I’m having a contraction ? Ways to breathe when I’m not ? Things to keep myself busy ? HELP! 😂

And third - IF APPLICABLE: what are some bible verses used during labor that helped calm you down and/or gave you reassurance ?

I am sooo beyond nervous, I don’t like to not know how things are going to go down although that’s exactly how this is going to happen haha. I’m a lady with a PLAN and I love taking control! So just knowing that this can happen anywhere @ anytime is what makes me feel uneasy and overwhelmed a lot of the time.

Thank you ladies! God bless! 💗💗
