Tearing with natural birth

Jesa
Hey ladies! So I'm a FTM and I really want to have my baby naturally. I am confident that I can do it and I've heard many people say that they recover much faster with a natural birth. The only thing I'm terrified of is tearing and being able to feel myself tear. And I'm a little scared of getting stitches down there if I do tear. Anyone else scared of this?
