I'm scared!

Tori • 2 kids. Married to the love of my life 💕
As my due date is slowly approaching... the thought of the pain I'm about to endure scares the crap out of me!!! I'm positive I do not want an epidural but ofcourse if I find it unbearable I'm not completely closed to the idea of getting one if need be. However, I really really want to try my hardest to go natural. I want to be in control of my body. Any of you moms who have gone natural.. what helped you through it? What should I do to prepare myself? I'm a FTM and have a relatively high pain tolerance but I have no idea what I'm in for! I'm almost 37 weeks. Any feedback would help. Thank you!
