Do you remember how scared you were pregnant with your first child? You heard all these horror stories about childbirth. It was not until after the fact that you realized the worst part was actually the fear and not the labor itself.

The doom is the same way. Right now you are scared, unsure if you can handle whats coming when the truth is you are going through the worst part now, the fear.

Just go into "mommy mode". Prepare for any event so when it actually occurs its no big deal for you and yours.
