Anxiety about birth

I’m 31 weeks and starting to get really anxious about giving birth. First time mom, and I’ve had a couple high blood pressure readings and my dr told me a week ago that if my readings didn’t get under control or stay steady there was a chance they’d take me up to 5 weeks early. I’m trying really hard to stay calm and work on preparing myself but honestly I’m freaking out a little. He’s also been all kinds of angles at every ultrasound but never head down. So my dr has been bringing up scheduling me for a C/section which I REALLY don’t want to do if I don’t have to.

On top of all that my husband and I just moved about a week ago and I’m just so exhausted about everything. Moving is exhausting and I’m always busy at my job and on my feet and I’m not sure what to do about stuff. I feel super unprepared for birth and kind of unprepared to actually have a baby. I just don’t know how to go about the next few weeks with holidays coming up and not being overly stressed or out of it. Holidays make everything else seem like it’s moving way too fast.
