Anxiety during labor

I have really bad anxiety and the thought of labor and delivery doesn’t help. I’m afraid that I’ll panic and lose control during labor and I really want to work on avoiding that.

I’m not due til January but of course the anxiety is causing me to have all these what ifs..

I’m not sure what I can do to help eliminate my fears so I’m trying to start by writing them down and expressing my feelings.

Anyone else have any tips on how to cope?

TIA
