Best of luck to you and your baby for the labor and delivery. I hope you have the natural birth experience you want - and that you and the baby are both healthy. I felt a lot of the same anxiety before the birth of my daughter (now almost 20 months). I would encourage you to enjoy the anticipation; get all the rest you can; and, as you said, focus on that end goal. Hearing the first cry of your baby is amazing. We had a c-section to bring her into the world, so my husband got to see her first (and he got to announce to me that our baby was a girl!) and every time I think of him saying "she's perfect" it brings tears to my eyes. A very magical moment that I enjoy remembering.
