Extreme fear of giving birth ?

Is it normal to feel extremely scared of giving birth to the point you’ll randomly cry? This is my first pregnancy and Ill be induced and giving birth in few days time. Im really hoping for a natural delivery and not e-csect? and can’t shake off the feeling of extreme fear and anxiety. I dont know what will happen, how my body will handle the pain and how im going to endure the pain as i have zero pain tolerance. Ill sometimes randomly cry before bed. I feel like counting down the days to giving birth is like the feeling of counting down the days to being hanged in prison. I know i should be happy and excited for baby to come but im just scared.

yes you will be nervous. I had to go for c sect cause was emergency case and baby was in breached position. Just remember to take your pain killer given by the doctor. Slight pain at a certain position is a definite but not as bad. I even get afraid of injections.
