Hi Tarini! I understand your situation. Every pregnancy journey, birth story, and infant care is different. Let it be your first pregnancy or not nothing can fully prepare you for the experience you'll have ahead. 

Still there are two things you can always try, visualisation & positive attitude. Visualisation is as easy as it sounds, you visualize your journey in a positive way. Interacting with mothers, elders ,learning & reading things up helps in this; this will help you know the basic things you may experience. And overall keeping a positive attitude helps as well, since you can never know things that may happen ahead. But then again there's many emotions involved here, if you're unable to cope with them it's important to reach out for help!
